Now is the Time for Sacred Ground: Interfaith Conversations About Race
2026-02-04, 2026-02-05, 2026-02-06, 2026-02-07, 2026-02-08, 2026-02-09, 2026-02-10, 2026-02-11 and 16 more dates | Curtis Memorial Library, 23 Pleasant Street, Brunswick, ME, 04011, United States
In times like these, it’s natural to feel overwhelmed, angry, helpless, or unsure of what to do. With so many urgent and painful challenges unfolding, it can seem like nothing we do makes a difference. Sacred Ground offers space to learn, reflect, and better understand how we got here — and how we can move forward together. This 11-session, film- and readings-based dialogue program helps participants connect the dots between our country’s history and today’s realities, offering the tools needed to engage effectively in the work of racial healing. This program offers not only knowledge and skills, but community — a shared sense of purpose and a reminder that you are not alone in hoping for a more just future.
We have four interfaith groups starting this fall at Curtis Library and hope you will join one. As you look at the dates below, don’t worry if there are one or two meetings of your chosen group that you can’t attend – life happens! Please join the conversation.
