Celebrate the weekend leading up to the Feast of the Immaculate Conception in the Mary, Queen of Families Chapel on Friday, December 6, from 9:30–10:00 a.m. Led by Fr. Brian Ching, C.S.C., Rector of the Basilica of the Sacred Heart, this opportunity to worship amidst site-specific installations offers an opportunity to reflect on the connection between liturgy and the arts. Following the Mass, we will offer a ten-minute guided exploration of a work of art on view featuring themes connected to the Immaculate Conception of Mary. Seating will be on a first come, first served basis.

Explore identity, challenge biases, and develop strategies for an inclusive environment. This workshop aims to deepen understanding of personal and collective identities through the lenses of race, gender, and class. We will address key issues such as micro-aggressions, implicit bias, stereotype threat, and imposter syndrome, understanding how they might impact classroom dynamics. Through interactive discussions and activities, we aim to grow cultural awareness and inclusivity. Attendees will leave the workshop with practical pedagogical strategies to create a more inclusive and equitable learning environment. Facilitators: Salvatore Riolo, Kaneb Center Postdoctoral and Graduate Associate Kyler Schubkegel, Kaneb Center Postdoctoral and Graduate Associate
