The Shantigar Foundation

The Shantigar Foundation is a gathering place where people seed artistic projects and grow their contemplative practice through creative workshops, meditation, and engagement with nature. Operating on a former dairy farm in northwest Massachusetts, Shantigar offers woodlands, gardens, and fields that quiet the mind and awaken the senses. The organization joins meditative and artistic practices with the healing power of nature to help people live more peacefully on the planet. In recent years, Shantigar has facilitated gatherings dedicated to regenerative land use and stewardship.
