the Arts and More
At the Lukas Community, we believe that in every human being, no matter how challenged, there lies a longing for self development. Artistic expression, intellectual stimulation and recreation are all important in this process of becoming.
Lukas creates an environment in which this process of unfolding is respected, supported and encouraged. Each week our residents participate in therapeutically designed classes in music, singing, eurythmy (expressive movement developed by Rudolf Steiner), water color painting, weaving, woodworking and more.
Cultural events at Lukas and in the local Monadnock area heighten these rich experiences. Our Education Group strives to stimulate interest and expand personal horizons through the study of various topics while practicing the basic skills of reading and writing.
