Pure Water: An Interfaith Community Dialogue

Cache Community Connections and the USU Center for Community Engagement are partnering with the Bear River Heritage Area to host “Pure Water: An Interfaith Community Dialogue.” The Hyrum Museum is currently displaying the Smithsonian Traveling Exhibit “H20 Today,” which explores the importance of water in the natural and cultural landscapes of our country, and this dialogue event supports the community outreach mission of the exhibit.

What role does water play in your religious or spiritual practice? What is the symbolism of water in your sacred texts or influential writings? How is water connected to the core-building experiences that have influenced who you are? All community members are invited to share their beliefs and experiences in this interfaith setting, with discussion from local representatives from various traditions and Religious Studies scholars.

Participants can expect to sit at round tables with discussion prompts and will be encouraged to rotate through the tables in order to speak with a variety of other community members. Mask-wearing is encouraged. After sharing in small groups, an invited speaker panel will discuss themes that came up in conversations and provide more insight into the importance of water in many religious and spiritual traditions.

  • Monday, October 25 at 6:00-7:00pm
  • Taggart Student Center Lounges (2nd floor) at Utah State University
  • Free admission, and guests who park in the Aggie Terrace or Big Blue Terrace will receive a free parking voucher (click here to download a PDF map with the terraces marked)

H2O Today is a traveling exhibition created by the Smithsonian Institution and brought to you by Utah Humanities and the Bear River Heritage Area. H2O Today and associated events are part of Think Water Utah, a statewide collaboration and conversation on the critical topic of water presented by Utah Humanities and its partners.
