Shared Inquiry
Monday, OCT. 6 - 12 to 1 p.m.
Shared Inquiry begins when a group of participants gathers around a short story, essay, or book鈥攏ot just to read, but to explore. The moment someone voices a genuine question, not one with a 鈥渞ight answer,鈥 but one born from curiosity, the conversation shifts. That鈥檚 the power of a real question鈥攊t opens the door to shared understanding and intellectual adventure. Come with your questions, your wonderings, and your openness. Let鈥檚 see where the conversation takes us.
Join this four-part series (this is the 2nd gathering) when available, attendance of all sessions not required. RSVP requested for lunch order.
