About OUR community hubs PROJECT
Inspired by our love of community & our belief in the importance of good reasoning, our Community Hubs project re-envisions the academy by re-centering the community as a place of learning. The project is scheduled to take place in the Summer of 2027.
Nava Gardens has generously offered to provide lodging for all of our visiting scholars and a campus space for us to conduct our program for the Helena community. We are over the moon about this sponsorship and so very grateful and humbled by their belief in our work and vision. Because of Nava Gardens, our project finally has the wings it needs to fly! And with your help, we can get it off the ground. More details to come.
