Meeting Room C

Share your family's American story in a discussion led by compassion educator Laura Banks and discover how honoring our diverse pasts can help us find common ground in the present. 

As our nation approaches its 250th anniversary, join us for a meaningful exploration of heritage, resilience, and connection. By reflecting on our family's journeys and relationship to this country while recognizing the unique histories of others, we can cultivate gratitude and build stronger connections within our community. 

This program is a collaboration with Loudoun VA250. Learn about the Loudoun VA250 Committee here and the Virginia American Revolution 250 Commission (VA250) here. 

View all of our programs celebrating the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution.
