Quinta Essentia Alchemy, 415 Main St, Rosendale, NY 12472, US

The Center for Symbolic Studies, founded by Drs. Robin and Stephen Larsen, is a renowned institution in New Paltz, NY that has been immersing individuals in the realm of the Mythic Imagination for over 30 years. Through seasonal festivals, Dream Workshops, sacred teachings by Shamans from around the world, lectures, and art and dance celebrations, the center offers a unique window into the profound power of myth and symbolism. With a diverse range of events and gatherings, such as Beltane, Midsummer, All Hallows Eve, and Imbolc, participants are invited to engage in their own way, with Renaissance dress and personal flair encouraged. Dr. Stephen Larsen, a Psychology Professor Emeritus at SUNY Ulster, and his wife Robin, an exhibiting artist and art historian, co-founded the Center for Symbolic Studies. Stephen, a certified mentor in biofeedback and EEG, draws from his extensive training in clinical depth psychotherapy and his studies with Joseph Campbell to guide participants in exploring the depths of their own psyche. Robin, with her vast knowledge of art history and world cultures, creates living artwork through ritual theater, mask making, and puppetry. Together, they have created a vibrant community that fosters personal growth, artistic expression, and a deep connection to the power of myth and dreams.Generated from the website
