What we are all about!
We Study Philosophy
We’re all trying to figure life out - and that’s exactly where philosophy comes in. At New Acropolis Chicago, we explore ideas from the world’s greatest thinkers to help you understand yourself, make better choices, and live with purpose. It’s not just about thinking, it’s practical wisdom you can actually use.
We Promote Culture
It is the living expression of human creativity, imagination, and connection, and through the cultural events we offer, this expression becomes a shared experience. By engaging with art, science, history, and stories from diverse traditions, we broaden our understanding of the world and of ourselves. Culture nurtures growth, enriches perspective, and reminds us of the shared humanity that unites us; it is at once enlightening, enjoyable, and deeply inspiring.
We Practice Volunteering
Looking for a meaningful way to make a difference? Volunteering with us offers the chance to give back, build genuine connections, and live out the values that shape a better world. Rooted in the timeless idea that true growth comes not from what we take but from what we give, each act of service becomes a step in our own journey of personal and philosophical development.
