Making Home a Place They Want to Be: Facing the Crisis of Our Day

Dr. and Sofia Cuddeback are hosting a mini-retreat exploring how to reclaim the household. Join them for a Saturday of philosophical examination, good company, and refreshments.

Our theme: Home can be a place of the richest activities and the deepest belonging. It can be the place we all most want to be, and to return to. This day’s lectures and discussion will suggest a radical approach to refocusing and reclaiming life in the home.
