[Libs-Or] Final Application Opportunity for the 2009-10 Conversation Project Season

[Annie Dubinsky]

³Good topics. Good facilitators. Good discussions.² That¹s what people are
saying about Oregon Humanities¹ newest program, the Conversation Project: A
New Chautauqua.
 
The Conversation Project offers a catalog of free programs that engage
community members in thoughtful conversations about ideas critical to our
daily lives and our state¹s future. The inaugural 2009­10 catalog of
programs features diverse and timely topics, including friendship, the
future of rural communities, media literacy, and reimagining the prison
system. 
 
The final opportunity to apply to host a Conversation Project program in the
2009­10 season is here!
 
Oregon Humanities invites applications through May 31 for program requests
that fall between July 1 and October 31. Any Oregon nonprofit is eligible to
request a program. The catalog, instructions for host organizations, and
downloadable application form are available at oregonhumanities.org.
