Join The Great Conversation From Your Sofa Facebook Twitter Email This Post Great Hearts Institute February 1, 2023 The 2023 National Symposium for Classical Education, the Great Hearts Institute‘s flagship conference, is almost here. The National Symposium for Classical Education is designed to enrich our understanding of the classical, liberal arts in both the theoretical and practical dimensions of curriculum and pedagogy. Beginning with curated presentations from select scholars and practitioners, we provide school leaders and master teachers with some of the best thought on the subjects under consideration. On February 22-24, more than 600 classical educators, school leaders, and families will join 70+ scholars, philanthropists, and leaders of the classical renewal for an unprecedented convocation of the entire movement. While attendees at the Phoenix Convention Center will have access to the full suite of specialist panels and workshops, you can watch every plenary session and lunch panel live, completely free of charge, from the comfort of your own home or office. All you have to do is register for online viewing at https://greathearts.institute/online-registration/. While it does not give you the same experience as participating in person, this free feature will keep you from missing out on some amazing conversation from some dynamic leaders in the field.
