Various Updates

The Contemplation Ed program we have started at TAS is now underway. We have a weekend retreat scheduled for the October 2-4 in Pine Hill, NY. On the agenda are some lovely mountain hikes, a few instructional meditations, a visit to the source of the Delaware River, and morning services at the Zen Mountain Monastery.
The Arts program is now in readable form. Though far from complete, we are able to say that the program seems adequate to our goals of developing basic skills and historical context in the visual arts.
We have welcomed a couple of new students in the last week.
