Join us for three sessions that explore creativity in community. We will start with a discussion session about aesthetic practices within our community and the way in which those expand our capacity for Self discovery. Next, we will be involved in an engaging experience of learning more about what we like and what we are like from within our community. Finally, we will have a chance to hear and to share about our aesthetic practices in this awesome community.
 
Envisioning a World Beyond Mass Incarceration
Led by the Transforming Incarceration Advocacy and Action Group
November 5, 12, and 19
 
These three sessions will introduce the congregation to a newly-launched project at UUCA: the Transforming Incarceration Advocacy and Action Group. The series will include an overview of the scope of the problem of mass incarceration in the United States and its intersections with race, poverty, and power. It will also discuss ways to be involved in the movement to end mass incarceration on both a personal and social/community level. Throughout the sessions, the TIAA group will introduce ways in which UUCA and you can be an advocate and volunteer to live our UU values in the realm of the criminal legal system.
