Dear Friends, Scholars, Sponsors, Donors, and Advocates:
As alternative to our usual in-person weekend program, Interfaith Scholar Weekend is so pleased to offer you our very substantive ISW 2021 Webinar Series! It is entitled, “Bearing Witness from Fresno’s Mason-Dixon Line.” See attached “Invitation” below. A two-page flyer highlighting the whole series is forthcoming.
Join us: Our six interfaith “every Monday” conversations begin on President’s Day, February 15th at 4 pm. In this 90-minute “Opening Panel,” our three guest scholars will consider what it means to “Bear Witness” to Fresno’s history of racism and redlining.
Registration: It has already begun! Register on Eventbrite. Save the dates for every Monday from February 15th to March 22nd. You won’t want to miss any of our six plenary sessions!
Note: There are opportunities for you to create your own Independent Zoom study group–tailoring it to your own needs for conversational learning. After you and your guests “attend” our plenary sessions, you can follow-up and plan your own Zoom meetings with friends, family members, or students. Keep watch on our Study Support page where you will find this forthcoming information as we update it.
Melinda Marie Pitarre, Spiritual Director
ISW 2021 Project Coordinator
PS: Bear with us as our ISW website pages and our Eventbrite landing page are still under construction. Updates and some corrections are forthcoming!
Make sure you register today for this year’s virtual Interfaith Scholarship Weekend.
This year all registration will take place on Eventbrite.
