Awaken Living Books Homeschool Conference

Rooted in Charlotte Mason's living-books philosophy, the Awaken Living Books Homeschool Conference gathers northern Michigan homeschoolers and traveling families each summer in Traverse City. The event is built around deepening families' understanding of literature-rich, nature-centered education — what organizers call a "Living Books Life." Attendees find inspiration through keynote sessions, community conversation, and connection with like-minded parents. An active podcast and blog extend the community beyond the conference weekend.
