Event dates: 2010/03/04 to 2010/03/21

 

Check out the latest news from Threefold Educational Center, New York, including their March events.

As the light slowly grows in strength and the equinox approaches, it's time to sing and dance! There are ample opportunities this month, with concerts, lectures, workshops, and performances of Tuvan throat singing, eurythmy, modern piano music, drumming, and more. See below for details.

Don't forget to check the Threefold calendar for other great events coming up, including a course on Parzival with John Wulsin; not one but two Passiontide lecture series to help prepare for Easter with Rev. Carol Kelly and Rev. Jonah Evans; and a unique opportunity to learn about home funerals and green burial, part of the new schedule of offerings from Sunbridge Institute. And that's just in March!
