Membership / Join
The Anthroposophical Society in America is a non-profit, non-sectarian association devoted to furthering the work of Rudolf Steiner. The only requirement for membership is that you acknowledge the value of Rudolf Steiner’s work in the world. You may choose to participate in the activity of the Society at whatever level interests you.
As a Society member...
after two years you may apply for membership in the School for Spiritual Science, founded in 1924 by Rudolf Steiner as an esoteric school for spiritual scientific research and study.
Financial participation
The Society needs the participation and support of members and friends to carry out its work. Membership in the Society may involve many possible forms of participation and is not dependent on a specific financial contribution.
Contact the office if you are in circumstances which make a contribution difficult – we are always happy to work with you. Email info@anthroposophy.org or phone at 734-662-9355.

Membership & financial participation
Across the country, members come together to study, to share their quest for meaning, their insights and their aspirations. Together with you, we are devoted to furthering Rudolf Steiner’s work and the anthroposophical movement in the United States.
As General Secretary John Bloom has noted, “A single voice can be very powerful, as we know from Steiner’s work, but the path to bringing ideals into reality is through shared ideas and collaborative actions.” Your membership matters! The basis of membership in the Anthroposophical Society is participation, which takes many forms. It is not dependent on a set financial contribution.
Your membership contribution is vital to the work of anthroposophy in the United States and at the Goetheanum. We ask that you consider your situation and give generously, so that we may continue to serve our members, the movement, and the being of Anthroposophia. We are grateful for your support! It’s easy to renew your membership.
