May 18-20
Transforming Mindscape and Landscape
Joshua Tree, California

The retreat will be organized to encourage participants to help plan all aspects of an integrated community compatible with the site. We will explore community building from the standpoint of politics and poetry, ecology, economy and energy, the arts, natural building and farming, water and transportation. Faculty members will meet with participants in specialized groups during the day to consider activities integral to designing and living within a desert community. The evenings will be devoted to multi-media presentations and short talks celebrating the majesty and magic of Gaia.
