A conversation about diversity, multiculturalism, unity and shared national culture. Diversity and immigration have always shaped the American story. From the nation’s beginnings, the United States has wrestled with a core question: What holds us together as one people when we come from so many different places? And as a corollary: Can a shared national culture coexist in a multicultural society with large-scale immigration? This conversation invites participants to consider a central American tension: Are diversity and unity in conflict—or can they strengthen each other in the United States?

Our season continues with music of love, longing, & connection, featuring works by Whitacre, Hagenberg, Drewes, LaVoy, Raminsh, and Forrest.
