Eco Grief: Love, Loss, and Lament
Year-long Series -- beginning in Fall 2024
As one response to Pope Francis’ call to ecological conversion through a transformation of heart and mind, the Brueggeman Center is launching a year-long program of events on ecological grief and lament. We have partnered with several departments and organizations at Xavier University to create a series of "Eco Grief" events that will use artistic expression (music, fine art, writing, film making) to explore the path from grief and loss toward lamentation and hope.
More information will be shared as the event details are solidified.
