Salt & Light Academy

A Hudson Valley-rooted initiative devoted to cultivating imagination, moral perception, and communal meaning in an age when knowledge itself is becoming automated.

We believe what most needs renewal in our time is the shared capacity to make meaning together.

“You are the salt of the earth…

You are the light of the world.”

-Matthew 5:13-16

We are a school for re-training human perception, imagination, and moral intuition in the age of machine cognition:

  • Through story and song

  • Through pilgrimages

  • Through sacred play

  • Through local gatherings

Our work includes:

  • Traveling story and puppet performances

  • Local history pilgrimages

  • Conferences and salons

  • Artistic and educational collaborations
