How’s it really going?
Family Weekend is a terrific time to reconnect: over food, festivities, new friends, and all the pleasures of life at UVA.
It’s also an opportunity for meaningful family conversation – a time to ask the question, “How’s it really going?”
Amidst the excitement of college, studies find that 57% of university students suffer from stress, 47% from depression and 45% from loneliness. Meanwhile, back at home, many parents experience loss over their child’s move to college. There are many ups and downs!
Theological Horizons, a Christian faith-centered organization at UVA, offers a safe haven for both believers and seekers; we curate conversations that connect us.
Join us for a free lunch and a guided experience of Essential Photovoice @UVA: an art-based approach to meaningful understanding with amateur photography at its core.
Photovoice is a dialogue format that invites you into a facilitated small group conversation that is low-pressure and fun. In a casual setting, you’ll be invited to talk about whatever is on your mind: from your hopes, struggles, and friendships to your faith, community, and everyday life --- simply captured in mobile phone snapshots.
No special skills required. All you need is your mobile phone (or a print photo or two) and a spirit of curiosity.
Grab friends and family members and come for a delicious meal and some fun, relaxing time together!
Saturday, November 4th from 11:30AM-12:45PM in the Programs and Council office (PAC) on the first floor of Newcomb Hall
Essential Photovoice is an art-based approach to interpersonal understanding that has participant photography at its core. Designed by national dialogue consultants Essential Partners, Photovoice invites participants to share the most important facets of themselves and their communities through amateur photographs. It is the newest iteration of Theological Horizons' Deeper Dialogues Initiative.
