On Friday, April 24th, The Portland Waldorf School will host a benefit headlined by Storm Large and held at the Mineral Springs Ranch and Soter Vinyards.

The event, “Soter by Storm,” will be an evening filled with music, food and wine, and highlights from the school about their holistic, creative, and eco-friendly curriculum.

Over the course of 33 years, The Portland Waldorf School has continued to grow, bringing parents and children together through their parent/child classes and balanced syllabi that include both the arts and traditional classroom subjects. Currently, they have over 300 students enrolled.

“Waldorf School’s curriculum as a ‘healing education’ is important to me as an artist, especially given how crucial music was in my development," said Storm Large. "With all the challenges in schools today, this kind of creative education in community is one I am proud to support.”
