July's Topic:
Long Term Relationships in Knowing Self
“The first half of life is devoted to forming a healthy ego; the second half is going inward and letting go of it.” Carl Jung
This will be a short introduction to Carl Jung’s theory of the second half of life, a time for going inward.
Relationships, especially long-term relationships, can act as mirrors for our own path of individuation and movement toward self. Understanding those relationships, with our own awareness and growth, offers valuable inner knowledge and helps to lead us towards wholeness.

SPOTLIGHT: YEA FESTIVAL Urban Gallery Walk
Starting May 15th, you can see the work of young Evanston Artists hanging in shop windows on the Mile.

We are thrilled that so many of our businesses will host these budding artists' work.
