The New York Open Center is the largest urban center of holistic learning and world culture in the U.S, now in its 25th year. Since 1984, more than 250,000 have come through its doors to find educational programs and cultural events that expand the mind and spirit, and to hear fresh alternative voices on matters of perennial concern. In addition, the Open Center has become a platform for some of the world’s most accomplished writers, scholars, activists, and visionaries, including spiritual teachers such as Karen Armstrong, Thich Nhat Hanh, Cornel West, Robert Thurman, and many others.
We offer over 600 workshops, classes, lectures, performances, conferences, and professional trainings attended by more than 10,000 people each year. The center is open seven days a week: Monday – Friday 10 am – 10 pm; Saturday – Sunday 9 am – 6 pm; offers member discounts, and its volunteer core is eligible to take select classes free of charge or at 50% discount. The facility also includes a small bookstore and café. The catalog of courses is published three times a year and goes out to the general public. www.opencenter.org | |
