The Creative Council are citizen artisans who, working collaboratively with Director Randall Stuart, create and produce the events for the year. The Cerimon House programming – our signature salons, ceremonies, workshops & symposia – all focus on the idea of exalting the Humanities in performative ways, and gathering to share Story. The Council includes teachers, designers, activists, authors, philosophers, clergy, business folk, movement specialists, puppeteers, poets, social workers and more.
