Three Sponsors are leading "a call to Sacred Activism" by continuing a tradition of interfaith social gatherings in Culver City.
The goal to bring speakers, artists, religious leaders and our community together to recognizes the diverse character of Southern California and Culver City's cultural need to address unity in diversity in our spiritual and cultural fabric whether in the past through city councilmen, the Mayor of Culver City or Los Angeles or through the Parliament of World Religions, this Sunday afternoon the legacy still moves forward.
This week the salon will address the recent Executive travel ban, and so much more providing a warm opportunity for fellowship with refreshments.
Standing together this coming Sunday before Valentine's Day, the program will include speakers, music and resources for worship, exchange, renewal and friendship.
While Los Angeles is dedicated to winning the bid for a new world Olympics,the Iman Cultural Center is working with UDC and its interfaith partners to open our hearts to our greater natures. It will continue its joy in diversity and exploration of neighborhood cultures as one human family.
With local outreach for inclusion, diversity, understanding, and cross-cultural spiritual exchange with a theme "Bridges of Love", the afternoon will represent mutual respect across differences and ongoing philosophical exploration.
Changed from a dinner concert to an afternoon salon to allow for a very full program, please come on time and check at 3pm for commencing at 3:30pm.
