Renaissance Years Road Test Retreat

June 8-10, 2025 in Gloucester, MA

When fully implemented in the future, Renaissance Years will offer people who lead or leave intense careers an opportunity to expand their intellectual and cultural horizons and personal social circle through a structured, multi-year collegial experience, combining intellectual stimulation and productivity, a trusted social circle, and impact and purpose-driven activities.  

In a nutshell, Renaissance Years is the liberal arts college experience, re-imagined for adults. It will be there for people to experience over many years, their Renaissance Years. Visit the Retreat Details page for the full schedule.

On the path to fulfilling this vision, a multi-generational, diverse cohort of accomplished, curious and caring people from across most Renaissance fields will test-drive Renaissance Years through participation in an experimental model of the program: the Renaissance Years retreat in Gloucester MA.
