Financial Support

Our mission is to make all of our programs accessible. Every fee-based offering has a limited number of pay-what-you-can spots available to support self-identified people of color, members of marginalized groups (queer people, transgender people, and  people with disabilities) and those in financial need (those for whom the cost to attend is not financially possible). 

These spots are offered on a first come, first served basis. Please pay at the highest level you can afford. In order for this support to be available, we rely on those who can afford to pay the full price to do so.

Find out if spots are available by clicking REGISTER NOW on the event you are interested in.

George Mumford, the performance whisperer, will be joining Trudy Goodman and Jack Kornfield for an engaging discussion of what’s required of us during this transformational time.  George, Trudy and Jack have been friends and colleagues for years, and they have a unique perspective on what’s required of us today.

“Courage, Mindfulness and Love” will be a discussion drawing on George’s work in times of crises. Whether that be with The Chicago Bulls in 1997-98, setting up inner city clinics with CIMC, on university campuses in the midst of hate crimes against students, in prisons, and with police forces – George has held difficult and powerful conversations that open up space for courage and love to shine through.
 
Trudy and Jack have taught beside George throughout these many settings, and have a unique perspective on this work.  Anytime these three get together, it is a joyful opportunity to learn.  While this conversation has been in the works for months, it’s no accident the timing aligned for it to happen now.
 
We hope you will join George, Trudy and Jack for this discussion.  There will be dialogue followed by Q&A.  If you are not able to attend live, a recording will be emailed to everyone who registers.
