Introduction
Education as an Art was the first widely circulated journal about Waldorf
education in the United States. It began in 1940 as the Bulletin of
the Rudolf Steiner School Association. The purpose of the journal was
to inform Americans about Rudolf Steiner's pedagogy, support the Rudolf
Steiner School of New York and to create interest in this education
that might lead to other schools being opened. In 1969 the journal became
known as Education as an Art: A Journal for the Waldorf Schools of North
America. The initial impulse for the early journal become a reality
with Waldorf schools and adult education centers reaching from coast
to coast. The Online Waldorf Library is pleased to share these articles
from the archives.
