This month’s program: “Your Life On Stories”
Our lives are so saturated by stories that it can be difficult to recognize just how dependent we are on them. They’re how we communicate our history, news, and even the events of our day. They’re how we entertain each other, teach our children, express ourselves, and (for some of us) make a living.
As we think critically about the existence of stories and the role they play in our lives, a deep and meaningful mystery begins to reveal itself.
Saturday, October 10, 6:30-11pm, 1021 E. Broad St. [east side door]
