ashritaLook who came to visit! Nura Laird (formerly Ashrita Laird), blessed us with a visit in November.  Ms. Laird is one of the brilliant women who founded Rainbow in 1977. She was executive director for the majority of the Rainbow’s first 14 years and an extraordinary leader and visionary.   Rainbow simply wouldn’t be here without her. Nura has dedicated her life to education and spirituality.  Nura and her husband John now live in California, where they are leaders at a Sufi university.  It was a joy and an honor to show Nura and John Rainbow as it is today.
