Way of the Monk, Path of the Artist -second section for Winter just added!

Way of the Monk, Path of the Artist is a 12-week online journey with fellow monks and artists and limited to 15 participants for intimacy and depth of sharing.

The first section filled a couple of weeks ago so I have decided to add a second one for winter (January 9-April 1, 2012).  This will take you through Lent and is a wonderful way to begin the new year with commitment to your contemplative and creative practice.

Once this section fills there will not be any more added and this will be the last time the class is offered until fall of 2012 so consider joining us now!

You can read more about the class and register here.

Email me with any questions you have.
