Confluence Collaborates with the Wapato Valley School, Courses for Adults

Our friends over at Confluence are working in collaboration with the Wapato Valley School and many other organizations to launch a project that aims to transform identities and relationships through place-based, experiential education. For those unfamiliar with Confluence, their organization works to connect people to place and each other through art and education.

Learn more about these courses which focus on place, the history of the Northwest, identity and the environment. All of the courses will take place at sites of cultural or geological significance and provide opportunities to learn more about this land and to reflect on what it means to live where we do and with all that has come before us. If you are interested to learn more about these topics, to explore your identity in relationship to place, to reflect on the history of colonization and connect all of this to contemporary social and environmental justice issues then check out these exciting offerings.

The Self Select Courses are designed to be flexible and allow you to make varied commitments of time, money and energy. As part of these courses you will attend an introductory class session before choosing the times and themes that are specifically engaging to you and work for your schedule. They also allow you to take multiple courses which build on each other and deepen your exploration of the course themes.
