Tea & Inspiration
All are invited to share a cup and conversation at the newly revived “Tea and Inspiration” program held at the Sewickley Public Library. The program welcomes friends and neighbors to gather to read, reflect and have elevated conversations based on uplifting quotations gleaned from the world’s Scriptures and other wise sources. A different theme will be explored each month.
Sewickley neighbors, Sharon Eakes, Grace Williams and Judith Washington, who coordinate the program, hope to inspire uplifting thought and reflection with the return of Tea and Inspiration, which took a hiatus due to the pandemic. Participants are welcome to contribute their reading and reflection or bring a quotation to add to the discussion, if they choose.
“Tea and Inspiration” will be held on the first Thursday of each month from 7-8:30 p.m. in the Conference Room on the first floor of the library. No registration is required.
Upcoming monthly themes include:
Sept. 1: Oneness of humanity
Oct. 6: The human spirit
Nov. 3: Art and inspiration
Dec. 1: Social justice
