LANA Board News
/It is with great pleasure that we welcome Catherine Read back to the LANA Board of Directors. She will be a great asset as part of the publications team within our Cultural Realm of LANA.
Catherine Read has been playing lyre since 2008 as part of teaching the Waldorf Curriculum at home (from Kindergarten through Grade Eleven, described in The Genius of Home, SteinerBooks). She has attended Lyre Summer Conferences and played for Advent Garden festivals. Catherine was previously on the Board of the Lyre Association of North America from 2002-2009, and was on the Faculty of the Dorion School of Music Therapy from 2005-2009. She was a founding member of Resonare, a music foundation course out of Anthroposophy, and was the founding editor of Soundings. Catherine is currently liaising with the Tir-Anna lyre workshop to support an internship in lyre building of the Derscheid Legacy lyres.
We would also like to express our gratitude to Colleen Shetland who has joined Christof-Andreas Lindenberg as an Emeritus member of the LANA Board. She has been a very active part of our Board for over 20 years, serving as LANA president during our 2015 international conference in Detroit, and making a key contribution to the development of our association. We are very grateful to Colleen for her years of service to LANA!
