Rumi Center for Spirituality and the Arts

was founded in 2018 by Baraka Blue and inspired by the life and legacy of the great mystic poet Mawlana Jalaludeen Rumi.

Perhaps no one has combined the qualities of spiritual master and literary genius to a greater extent than Rumi. At a certain point in his life, Rumi came to the realization that art was the most effective means to awaken people to the deepest potential within. Thereafter he retired from academic teaching and devoted his life to poetry, dance, music, and meditation, as well as cultivating a community of fellow spiritual creatives committed to awakening and refining the heart.

Our Vision

We at Rumi Center believe in art and creativity as profound tools - not only of self-expression - but of self-discovery. A means by which human consciousness is transformed and illuminated, and the deepest truths made accessible.

Our Mission

We are dedicated to teach and transmit the wisdom of the Sufi spiritual path and creative disciplines. Rumi Center offers both cohort based live classes as well as a range of on-demand courses for artists, seekers and lifetime learners. 

Here you can find our course catalog of live and self-paced on-demand courses.
