… the Corona Book published by the Goetheanum Leadership?

The book edited by Ueli Hurter and Justus Wittich on behalf of the Goetheanum Leadership has so far sold 3600 German and 530 English copies (Perspektiven und Initiativen zur Coronazeit, Verlag am Goetheanum and Perspectives and Initiatives in the Times of Coronavirus, Rudolf Steiner Press, respectively).

… the call for clowns to step forward?

When more than a dozen artists responded to the “Call for Clowns” in Anthroposophy Worldwide 7-8/2020, Stefan Hasler, the head of the Performing Arts Section, saw the possibility of a new specialty. He asked Sebastian Jüngel to continue to be the contact person and coordinator of a “Work Group on Clowning” within the Section. The search for more clowns who are active in anthroposophic art, medicine and education continues. We would like to hear from them what their themes are, their needs and ways of working and where they perform and train.

… Hebet el-Nil Waldorf School in Egypt?

The Hebet el-Nil Waldorf School in Luxor (Anthroposophy Worldwide 1-2/2019) now has a separate lower school building for classes 1 to 6. Despite a five-month closure due to Coronavirus the building could be completed in time for the school start on 13 September (design: Christian Hitsch, execution: Tajeb Construction Office Luxor). On 20 October 2020, the school community celebrated the official opening together with the architect, representatives of the Egyptian government and sponsors from Europe. The two kindergartens and classes 1 to 4 have now 150 children.
