News from the Center for Biography & Social Art
A new three-year cycle of the Biography and Social Art Certificate Program will begin this coming summer-July 2013-in Chestnut Ridge, New York, and enrollment is now open. There is growing interest in biography work today. Many adults long for rich learning experiences, personal transformation and a more conscious understanding of life. Rudolf Steiner anticipated the need for this important work-for the cultivation of people capable of "a special kind of human understanding." Biography work has much to contribute to community development, adult education, health care, elder care, all areas of human experience. The Biography and Social Art Certificate Program develops competent leaders in this growing and vital endeavor.
