A talk by Brigida Baldszun. How can we learn to recognize Ahriman? How can we ward him off? Examples from the Mystery Dramas and other texts by Rudolf Steiner.
In this course, which meets on ten Saturdays from September to May, we design and sew garments using four natural fibers (cotton, linen, wool and silk) to create four items for a complete outfit. Drafting simple patterns and sewing by hand gives us an opportunity for meditative work and a chance to center ourselves. Over the course of the year we experience different sewing techniques, plant dyeing, and embroidery as we create our own unique fabric for our garments.
Rudolf Steiner spoke about the Appearance of Christ in the etheric, and emphasized that it will be a tragedy if this event is passed by. Judith Brockway will explore some of the forces that are actively working against this significant event and how we can work to support their being overcome.
These events will provide a time to experience the extraordinary in the "ordinary." Each event will combine a time of quiet observation in small groups involving graphics, notes, sharing, and a time to experience the view of a hiker in the landscape.
Participate in the end-of-season harvest of flowers, leaves, and roots from our biodynamic dye garden, and experience dyeing natural materials. Feel the healing energy from the plant world as you receive the beautiful colors from nature.
This talk and conversation with Rev. Anna Silber will explore the role of religion for children, from the early years until the threshold of puberty and beyond. We will dive into the challenging questions of age appropriateness, morality, spirituality, and individual freedom.
Please join us for a free community workshop. Fiber Craft Studio Co-director Miho Suzuki will show how to make a pieced drawstring from fabric scraps. Fabric that was plant-dyed here at the Studio will be provided.
Sunbridge Institute’s Teachers Conference tackles the important task of uncovering racism in the Waldorf movement and identifying steps we must take to dismantle it.

A Michaelmas biography workshop with Sea-Anna Vasilas. Through reflection and conversation, we will traverse the paths of each of our lives in search of the events, relationships, and even crises, through which the Spirit of God can be perceived. How can we learn to recognize the work of the Archangel Michael, as the countenance of Christ, in the signs of the times and in our own lives?
On the first Sunday of each month through December, Jennifer Kleinbach will recite Rudolf Steiner's Foundation Stone Meditation at Threefold Auditorium. All are welcome.
Through questions and answers, small-group dialogue and activity, and exploring ways to turn concepts into practice, participants will have the opportunity to increase racial literacy, engage in community, and set personal goals for their teaching and/or administrative and board work.
Registered attendees of the Anthroposophical Society’s virtual Annual Conference and General Meeting, Building the Temple of the Heart, are invited to gather with us at Threefold to participate in the virtual conference together, and then to join in in-person biography work, breakout sessions, conversation, and meals.
