To honor the International Day of Peace, an Interfaith Progressive Dinner will be held at three different local houses of worship with four faith traditions participating. Different portions of a meal will be served at each location as we progressively move as one group from place to place.

This is an opportunity to:

• Learn about different faith traditions
• Sample spiritually and culturally relevant foods
• Build Community

Tickets: $25 per person general admission, $10 for students (including college). Event is limited to a maximum of 100 people. Ticket deadline is September 12, 2025.

The Progressive Dinner ticket sales are open now on Eventbrite:
