Reenchant the world…from where you are.

In a time of isolation, goodness, truth, and beauty don’t have to be canceled.

With your help, we'll be filling our Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube feeds with wonderful content designed to encourage you, connect us all with each other, and give us inspiration for ways to enjoy the time we have at home.

How you can help:

Take a video of yourself sharing a favorite piece of art! Read a story or poem or selection, sing or play a song, show us a painting…tell us why you love it and share it with us. No masterpieces allowed; we just want to see your smile, be reminded that we can find beauty in the hardest of moments, and get a chance to enjoy something potentially new. Post your video (with audience set to public) on Facebook with the #ReenchantTheWorld hashtag and tag @Anselm Society, or email a link to us at anselmsociety@gmail.com.

Tickets only $35!
