About Abbott Chrisman
US/Swiss artist, director, somatic practitioner, and educator. Active in theatre, writing, university teaching and community projects, based in Zurich.
Came to the Findhorn Foundation Community: 2017
Left the Findhorn Foundation Community: 2020
Areas of involvement with the Findhorn Foundation Community: Experience Week 2003, guest programs 2005-2016, LCG 2016-2017 (Cullerne, Park Homecare), LEAP 2017-2020 (Cullerne, Comms, archive project). I enjoyed being a student and apprentice teacher in the Mystery School. Wrote an initial plan for a digital archive for the Findhorn Foundation in 2020.
Experience in the community affected your work in the world: My experiences as a guest provoked many questions that lead to big changes in my own teaching and the creation of a peer-based faculty development initiative at my university.
