As the planet takes the seasonal spring posture of regeneration, it brings me great pleasure to present this catalog to you. Additionally, it is an honor to feature and share the art of Métis visual artist and author Christi Belcourt on our cover. Regarding her artwork The Wisdom of the Universe she says, All species, the lands, the waters are one beating organism that pulses like a heart. We are all a part of a whole.
Just like the season itself, the wisdom of teachers and universal ideas assembled in at LCE this spring offer an invitation for connection through intellectual stimulation and balance, and present a possible cure for isolation, stagnation, and winter hibernation. I hope to see you online and in the classroom in the weeks and months to come. Spring is here!
