Sing For a Better Future
In partnership with Music That Makes Community
Occurred on August 6, 2020
We lifted our voices in an earth-honoring worship gathering and online community singing experience, led by Paul Vasile and Conie Borchardt of Music That Makes Community. This online gathering also included an opportunity to gather in breakout groups to reflect on what we experienced, and for Conie and Paul to share with us possibilities for how we can lead live singing within our own digital contexts.

Summer Arts Series - Session 3
A Queer Response to Climate Change — What Would Walt Whitman Do?
with storyteller, performance artist, and scholar Peterson Toscano
Occurred on August 18, 2020
Performance artist, queer Bible scholar, and on-line content creator, Peterson Toscano tackles the biggest issue of them all – global warming – and does so with a campy, thoughtful, mind expanding interactive performance designed especially for the Zoom platform. He resurrects the spirit of Walt Whitman and makes connections to LGBTQ+ issues, the power of art, environmental justice, and much more. Travel to the past and the future as Peterson’s character transformations, creative thought experiments, and original multimedia. You will laugh and learn, but most importantly your imagination will be unlocked to help you envision a better world as you consider your role in it.
