The AHA’s states that humanism is “informed by science, inspired by art” and that “values…have their source in human experience and culture.” With that in mind, the Jefferson Humanists have decided to start a new monthly program.
Each month, we will enjoy a local cultural, arts or science event with our fellow humanists. We might go to a movie or play, attend a science lecture or museum exhibit, take in a festival, examine art galleries or listen to an author talk about their new book. Keep your eye on Meetup to see what is coming up for 2019!

“Making art assumes empathy. Making art is an act of sharing. It is by definition, an invitation to others to leave their isolation and meet others on the same road as you. An artist without empathy is a sociopath.” ~ Steven Holmes
