ALL ABOUT THE CONGRESS
An important person for humanity lived in Vienna: Rudolf Steiner. His 150th birthday will be celebrated in the congress year. We intend to find out more about his life and legacy. This time, the theme of the congress, which was jointly found in a preparatory meeting with congress participants, is called "Searching for traces". In lectures, in art, on excursions to the most beautiful sights in the city and in numerous workshops, we will search for traces together. Birthday presents in the form of contributions for the cultural evening: Music, eurhythmy, theatre scenes, poems or reports, or something completely di erent. Each contribution must be noti fed to the organiser as soon as possible, so that a diverse evening programme can be put together. Bring along selected works of art for an art exhibition in the Convention Centre! What would a congress in Vienna be without waltzes? Therefore, bring along a dress for the lady and a white shirt for the gentleman, for the "Vienna Congress Ball".
The congress will take place in the Congress Centre of the 'Messe Wien' (the trade fair center in Vienna), located near the wellknown Prater.
Address: Messeplatz 1, 1020 Wien entrance of the Congress Centre; Entrance C, at the tower 'Messeturm'
