Pigfesting Lectures At Society of Classical Learning

Join The Great Conversation

Enlightened culture is born of enlightened people. Enlightened people are the result of enlightened
conversations, many of which happen around meal tables. As Aquinas put it, “culture is the sum of conversations.” The PigFest Society (see www.pigfestsociety.org) is a regular gathering of an eclectic group of people around a hosted table. PigFesters gather to indulge in great food and great conversation about the important issues of the day, and to sharpen their respective abilities to engage and enhance their communities. These gatherings offered the opportunity to change the minds of others, to improve one’s own thinking, and to collaborate around worthwhile ideas and initiatives. The conversations from these gatherings have literally changed our world. Come learn more about how to be involved (and how to get your students involved) in the Great Conversation.
