Interest Groups will take place at the FGC Gathering at Western Oregon University on Tuesday evening, July 4, 2023 from 7 pm to 8:45 pm. These are small-group sessions that often spark new leadings and insights. On Tuesday, choose from varied topics likely to include peace and justice issues, education, economics, spirituality, and other Quaker concerns
Interest Group Proposals
If you are interested in leading an Interest Group at the 2023 Gathering, complete the Interest Group Proposal Form by May 1, 2023. The form will be posted by the end of March. We encourage you to consider an Interest Group in keeping with the theme “Listen So That We May Live”. We also welcome proposals that do not directly address the theme.
We will consider each proposal with care. If we are not able to schedule your interest group, you will be notified by May 31st.
This proposal process is for interest groups scheduled for Tuesday evening July 4, from 7 pm to 8:45 pm. If you would like to offer your interest group at another time, you may schedule a room and time at the Information Desk after you arrive at the Gathering, and then publicize your event in the Daily Bulletin.
