Contemplate The Cosmos And Connect Culturally, Spiritually & Beyond At United Palace's 'Social Artistry In Action' Event

The United Palace, New York City's 1930's landmark theater turned hub of creative expression and personal growth that fuses culture, spirituality, and entertainment together, will host an interactive program on the emerging field of Social Artistry on Sunday, July 15th, 2018 starting at 9AM. Social Artistry is a state-of-the-art personal training that calls people to become "Social Artists," or leaders who utilize the dedication, skills, and understanding of an artist and apply them to people and societies around them. The interactive program will provide attendees with the tools to engage in meaningful action through deep exploration of society and layers of the human psyche - mind, body, mythic, and spiritual.

Jean Houston, the founder of Social Artistry and a Ph.D., scholar, philosopher and researcher in Human Capacities, will lead the interactive program along with various other Social Artists who are masters in their own fields who wish to share their discoveries and discuss their personal findings and experiences.

"United Palace is thrilled to pay host to 'Social Artistry in Action' because this event aligns with our mission on the highest level," says United Palace's CEO and Spiritual Director, Heather Shea. "Attendees will leave empowered to embody and facilitate change in their communities and in the world. The unparalleled history and positive energy of United Palace makes us the perfect vessel to bring this extraordinary opportunity to the people of New York City."

Additional speakers will include Ph.D. cosmologist and planetary healer Jude Currivan, International Goi Peace Award-winner Duane Elgin, award-winning journalist and best-selling author Lynne McTaggart, and Leadership and Capacity Development director for the United Nations, Monica Sharma. Additionally, they will be joined by American Idol finalist and United Palace's own Artistic Music Director Anwar Robinson; their in-house spiritual counsel and Assistant Vice President of NYU José Miguel Román; and Heather Shea, Spiritual Director and Chief Executive Officer of the United Palace.

Doors will open at 8:30 AM and RSVP is requested by visiting https://www.unitedpalace.org/uphi-calendar/eventdetail/5099/-/social-artistry-in-action or calling 212-568-6700. Although the event is free, donations of any kind are suggested.
