Annual Conference

The Alliance hosts an annual conference each year, with a location that varies, offering a rich opportunity for connection, inspiration, and professional nourishment. Rooted in the earliest history of our organization, the conference is core to our work and brings together educators and leaders from across the country.

Participants engage in meaningful content, practical guidance, and heart-centered connection, all grounded in our shared mission to bring Public Waldorf education to life in diverse settings.
