Join us for a thought-provoking afternoon of exploration into the life, work, and legacy of C.S. Lewis. Scholars and enthusiasts will engage in discussions on Lewis’s imaginative storytelling, spiritual insights, and his ability to bridge the gap between fantasy and faith. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to his work, we hope you will join us to hear fresh perspectives on one of the 20th century’s most influential writers.
