Living Library

Enhance your view. Explore a new lens into diverse perspectives and experiences at the Living Library. We can all learn from each other, and we all have stories and experiences to share. Together, we can build empathy and address stereotypes, prejudice and discrimination by sharing our personal experiences.

The Living Library allows you to engage with authentic human experiences. Take a seat and listen to community members’ stories at the Living Library to gain greater compassion and insight into what others may be experiencing.

This event is in conjunction with World Day of Social Justice, observed internationally on February 20. Learn more »
