Thank you for a great Summer Institute 2025!

Summer Institute 2026: July 5th-11th

Get ready for an unforgettable week of community, music and learning! Summer Institute 2025 is returning to Oberlin College, OH.

Our theme speaker is Rev. Susan Ritchie and the theme is Co-Creating Hope: The Art and Beauty of Resilience.

In these talks, Rev. Ritchie invites us to explore how Unitarian Universalists have turned to the arts—literature, visual arts, architecture, and music—not only as sources of inspiration, but as spiritual practices that generate hope. By engaging these with these creative forms in our Unitarian Universalist way today, we can cultivate resilience: learning to live with uncertainty, widening compassion, awakening imagination, and nurturing lives in harmony with nature, one another, and ourselves.

Be part of a vibrant community dedicated to personal growth, social justice, and spiritual exploration. Mark your calendars for Summer Institute 2025 and get ready to:

• Connect with like-minded individuals
• Explore new ideas and perspectives
• Enjoy inspiring music and arts
• Be inspired by Rev. Susan Ritchie’s message
