Casper ter Kuile will visit virtually today, Thursday, Feb. 22, at 12 p.m. Casper is a graduate of Harvard Divinity School, author of The Power of Ritual, former co-host of Harry Potter and the Sacred Text, and co-founder of Nearness, an online spiritual community for people of all faiths (including people who are not religious). He also has experience with environmental advocacy. Casper will chat with us about his work and lead an optional spiritual practice. Nearness is offering a free spring journey (series of small group sessions) focused on the theme of Holy Friendship for young adults, so this chat is a good opportunity to learn about that offering. There are no faith requirements to participate.
Learn more about the Nearness Holy Friendship journey.

Do you crochet? If so I need help crocheting classic granny squares. These are a square motif with clusters of double crochet. Each granny square is about 3.5 by 3.5 inches. These granny would make a house for my Art Senior Show which represents a community of people coming together to create a home. If you are interested in helping or have any questions, please feel free to contact me, Oz, at ood10@albion.edu or 469-688-4068. Please drop these off at the Bobbitt Visual Art Center, there’s a box labeled Granny Squares next to Room 103, by March 11. Thank you so much for your time.
