In the face of our current climate crisis, we are challenged more urgently than ever – do our religious ideologies draw our attention to the hereafter, or to the here and now? How might Christianity contribute to the crucial work of natural restoration? What good is caring for others if we do not also care for the world that sustains all of our lives? About the Speaker: Professor Peter Bolland is the Philosophy and Humanities Department Chair at Southwestern College where he teaches world religions, Asian philosophy, world mythology, and ethics. A columnist for Unity Magazine and author of The Seven Stone Path: An Everyday Journey to Wisdom, Professor Bolland is a frequent speaker and workshop facilitator at a wide variety of churches (including FUMCSD), spiritual centers, and learning centers like San Diego Oasis, The Osher Institute of Life Long Learning at SDSU, the Chopra Center, the San Diego Vedanta Monastery, and more.

Art San Diego, to be held at the San Diego Convention on Harbor Drive from November 1-3, 2024, is an annual cultural experience featuring approximately 500 leading contemporary artists, fine art photographers, and designers; it offers dynamic programming that includes curated exhibits, local talent, and student artists. Now celebrating its 16th year, Art San Diego is the region’s most acclaimed and longest-running contemporary art and design fair and the only marketplace where artists, art publishers, galleries, art students, and dealers all come together to celebrate and showcase postmodern art. Produced by Redwood Art Group, with presenting sponsor UBS Wealth Management, Art San Diego is a unique art fair that serves to enhance the artistic culture of “America’s Finest City” while it also raises thousands of dollars through its Access to Art program, via student artwork sales and donations, to help Monarch School and Humble Design, both of which are non-profits that benefit unhoused families. UBS hosts a VIP reception of high-net-worth collectors, by invitation only, on Friday evening. Over the weekend, ASD attracts more than 5,000 art lovers, giving them insights into San Diego’s vibrant and diverse cultural art scene alongside an exciting collection of international galleries.
