Sanctuary has had a vibrant and important yet to this day largely underreported history. All are invited for an evening of talks and discussion of the history of the sanctuary movement in Amherst, New England, and beyond.

Sanctuary Movement Histories is on Friday, October 6, 2023, from 7:00 - 8:30 PM at First Church Amherst, 165 Main Street in Amherst, MA. This event is sponsored by the Amherst College Center for Community Engagement and Religion Department and is free and open to the public.
