History of the Branch and Building

Anthroposophy’s roots in the United States and New York City go back to 1910 when the first study group formed among some singers based at Carnegie Hall. Today, a century since Rudolf Steiner’s passing, a new generation of seekers is finding anthroposophy and striving to create its own unique relationship to spiritual science.

Anthroposophy NYC’s “Legacy’s Light” series is an intergenerational exploration of anthroposophy’s journey in this country--with a particular focus on New York City. Our events will feature brief presentations and live interviews by younger anthroposophists. They will explore the spiritual awakening of the 1960s-70s as it unfolded in the next decades in anthroposophical initiatives. Through live conversations with panels of individuals who founded and experienced them and  their early growing pains, we hope to shed light on spiritual science’s present and on the future we are called upon to create.

This event will be hosted live at 138 West 15th Street and on zoom
