ONLINE COURSE
Mythic Archetypes of Experience: Wise One, Healer, Sovereign, Shadow
May 27 - Aug 12, 2025 monthly on Tuesdays
11:00 am - 12:00 pm Pacific Time

Archetypes — symbolic beings like the Healer, the Wise One, or the Sovereign — recur from our most ancient literature into our present-day television and politics. They’re tools we use to understand ourselves and the world. Join three experts from the Joseph Campbell Foundation to explore four "archetypes of experience," symbols of knowledge and mastery gained in adulthood, in this online course from Roundtable by the 92nd Street Y, New York.
