Jay Alagia used to lead an art studio time at UUCP. Val Wylie was asked to revive that, and she found that we can use the Johnson room every Wednesday from 1-4 pm. 

So if you are interested in creating art, knitting, doing a puzzle, quilting, or making a quiet handcraft, please email artsandcrafts@phoenixuu.org, just to let us know that you’re interested, by Tuesday, December 31. We hope to start meeting Wednesdays in 2025, probably starting January 8th. We will contact you directly and via Compass when plans are firm.

Come discuss with us Keeping the Faith: God, Democracy, and the Trial that Riveted a Nation, a book about the Scopes trial in 1925. On Dec.15  we will cover Chapter Two:  A Cross of Gold and the Man with the Hoe, and Chapter Three: Huxley, Nietzsche, Mencken.   What we have covered so far (Preface and Chapter One) has shown two major forces at work in the US from the mid-1800s to 1925,  as well as main elements of Clarence Darrow’s character.  The next meeting will be in Annex Room B at 9:00 AM on Sunday, December 15.

Poetry Walk and Talk has restarted as of December 13. Join us at 9:00am each week on Friday and walk about a mile on paved streets around 16th street and Northern. We meet in the parking lot of St Stephen’s Byzantine Catholic Cathedral, 8141 N 16th St. Bring a poem to read at one of several stops along the way.
