Edgewood Engaged 2021

Understanding our Connectivity - Edgewood Engaged - April 22-23 Online!

Welcome to Edgewood Engaged 2021! Our theme this year, “Understanding Our Connectivity,” arose from a deep desire to stay connected, to treasure moments we can spend together in person, and to realize, maybe more profoundly than before, how our actions can affect another person’s life.

This year’s presentations will help you dive into the myriad ways we are connected. You can begin to see how we are connected to the earth, bacteria, and wildlife though the multiple biology presentations. You might begin to understand the intersection of gender, race, culture, and nature through art. You have a chance to hear the insights speculative fiction in a live reading by students.

We are excited to offer a combination of live events and pre-recorded presentations.
