welcome to the Etievan Cultural Center
Arts and Crafts as a means of gaining self awareness allow a dive into yourself, your relationships and into unique experiences for a more conscious life.
OUR PURPOSE
In addition to the practical results, when we work on a craft or artistic language, we have the possibility of opening ourselves up to a state of presence, which permeates everything we do. In our School, Arts and Crafts can be an instrument for this presence to take place.
OUR METHOD
Our practical and experiential methodology is always an invitation to try and discover. A constant process of self-awareness that integrates mind, body and feeling.
our activities
Our programs, workshops and immersions integrate arts (music, theater, dance, visual arts) and crafts (agriculture, construction, woodworking, handicrafts, tapestry, cooking, confectionery) with the development of essential qualities for life and being.
AT OUR SCHOOL
We work with the principles of the Etievan Model: interest in seeking (not knowing is formidable); love of voluntary effort; love of work; voluntary attention (development of attention); cooperation rather than competition; confidence in yourself; sense of responsibility and willpower.
Our practical methodology and experience is always an invitation to try and discover. Thus, we seek to prepare human beings for all stages of life : being sons and daughters, fathers and mothers, grandfathers and grandmothers, in a constant process of gaining self -awareness that integrates mind, body and feelings.
