Join us for our new monthly performance series, Saturday Sound Check! Each month, the concerts will showcase musical guests from across many genres, with something for everyone!

Equal parts guitar and vocal driven, sonically and structurally diverse, NadNavillus is the music of Dan Sullivan. The Chicago Tribune describes his latest album, “Upper Constant,” as “At turns propelling and languid, hypnotizing and raucous … an audible mood ring gauged to the whims of the listener.” Other recent albums include two releases on Jagjaguwar, “Show Your Face” and “Iron Night,” and his self-released “Forgotten Portraits.”

For this performance, Sullivan will be joined by a small ensemble, selecting songs that span his 25-year career.

The suggested donation of $15 includes refreshments. Doors open at 6:30.

As the winter holiday season approaches, our thoughts turn to food – family recipes, favorite restaurants, comfort food, cultural traditions. For this Community Day program, we're excited to present another in our Lightning Talks series. A few members of our community will share short, prepared talks on a common theme, food. If you are interested in contributing, reach out to Carrie Ost to provide information on your talk idea no later than November 1.

Humanist ethics rest on the idea that every person has inherent worth and dignity. Yet many women learn from an early age to be seen as bodies to be evaluated rather than as whole people. Dr. Renee Engeln of Northwestern University will draw on psychological research to explore how objectification shapes women’s lives: their body image, the labor of beauty work, the pressures of social media culture, and the exhausting sense of performing all the time. She'll ask us to consider what this means for authenticity and mental health, and what it asks of all of us in terms of how we see and treat one another.
