Join our Dean, Dr. Jane Shaw, and the clergy of Grace Cathedral for a series of stimulating conversations about faith and ethics in relation to the issues of our day.  Leading public figures, musicians, theologians, artists and writers will bring the most innovative and interesting thinking to our public space and engage our minds and hearts to think in new ways about the world.

The Forum takes place selected Sunday mornings from 9:30 - 10:30 a.m. in Gresham Hall.  We always invite you to join us on Sunday mornings for the 11 a.m. Choral Eucharist immediately following The Forum.
