Convocation Calligraphy

Convocation Ceremony

Convocation is Naropa's traditional ceremony, occurring once a year in the beginning of the fall semester, during which we come together as students and teachers to celebrate the start of another academic year. During convocation, we create and join a community that welcomes each moment whole-heartedly with beginner's mind, so that we might gently wake each other up, all year long.
