The months since the election in November of 2016 have been difficult for many of us. We need community and we need hope. The goal of the discussions listed below is to find insights into the roles that art and artists can play in countering the forces which have divided our nation. As individuals our power is limited. Together we can find ways to move forward. There is no cost to attend these events. I hope you will join us. - Jonathan
