Ethics has been described as living “the good life” — a balanced life that is personally fulfilling and engaged in good works. Are you interested in engaging in the lifelong learning that enables us to live “the good life”? The Society for Ethical Culture hosts events, groups, workshops, classes and social events that help us develop individually to live the “good life” — a personally fulfilling life and a life engaged in good works.
Ethical Living includes events to learn, to expand our ideas and skills, and Ethical Living also includes community events, to get to know each other better as whole people. Most of our Sunday platform meetings also address ethical living and learning
