You're invited to attend the Community Foundation of South Puget Sound's inaugural Community Conversation event. As an organization dedicated to fostering collaboration, engagement, and inclusion, we strive to realize a vision where everyone in our region has the opportunity to thrive in communities that are sustainable, equitable, and resilient.In selecting our first Community Conversation theme, we were struck by the concerning trend of increased polarization across our communities locally and nationally. This is why we are thrilled to welcome Mónica Guzmán, a journalist and author dedicated to fostering fearlessly curious conversations across divides to build understanding in dangerously polarizing times. You might also recognize Mónica from her New York Times recommended read, "I Never Thought of It That Way How to Have Fearlessly Curious Conversations in Dangerously Divided Times."
Join community members from all around our region for a fireside chat with Mónica Guzmán, joined by Renee Radcliff Sinclair, board member of the Community Foundation and President and CEO of TVW. Together, we will explore Mónica’s experiences and strategies for better understanding and learning from those with differing or even opposing views. We will also have a special introduction by Lieutenant Governor Denny Heck.
After the fireside chat be sure to stick around for a reception to connect with Mónica and others. Browsers Bookshop will be there with copies of Mónica's book for sale and we will also have small bites and desserts from Bite Me Catering PNW for all to enjoy. We can't wait!
