Minneapolis – Learning from Place: Exploring Minnesota’s Religious Landscapes

August 6 @ 9:00 am - 2:00 pm CDT

$35

This Learning from Place experience invites participants to explore Minnesota’s rich religious landscape through visits to three faith communities in the Twin Cities: Temple Israel, Masjid An-Nur (mosque), and The Basilica of St. Mary. Traveling together by bus, participants will engage in guided visits, storytelling, and facilitated dialogue that deepen understanding of how religious traditions shape the cultural, historical, and civic life of our state.

As participants move through each space, they will learn the significance these places hold and consider how identity, migration, and community life intersect in Minnesota.

Throughout the experience, facilitators will provide context and guide reflection, supporting participants in making connections across sites and considering the implications for their own roles in a pluralistic democracy. Time will also be set aside for a shared lunch and informal reflection.

Come ready to listen, reflect, and engage with curiosity and questions.

K-12 Educators will receive 5 clock hours upon completion of the event.

This experience is presented in collaboration with Minnesota Multifaith Network (MnMN), a non-profit organization committed to convening and connecting leaders, organizations, and individuals across religious, spiritual, and philosophical differences in Minnesota to cultivate understanding, advance justice, overcome fear, and build a more inclusive and compassionate community.
