Volunteering and Philosophy
As citizens, we want to share the best of what we have to offer for the benefit of the overall collective experience. Volunteering is about activating our will (voluntas being the Latin for will) so that we can act in our community and choose to have a meaningful, positive impact in the world around us.
Upcoming Public Events
A variety of cultural events are held by New Acropolis throughout the year, many of which are open to the public. These events provide a forum for learning followed by the opportunity for relaxed philosophical discussion over refreshments. Find out more about our upcoming public talks
