SUMMARY:Hey Neighbor: Person-to-Person Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Join The Historic Trust for the popular person-to-person conversation event “Hey Neighbor” modeled on “36 Questions for Civic Love” \nIn Spring 2023 and 2024\, The Historic Trust hosted “Hey Neighbor\,” conversation events featuring The 36 Questions for Civic Love. This October\, join us for another round! Using the same format with some new questions sprinkled in\, you and a partner will ask each other a series of questions\, listen to each other’s answers\, and explore common ground. \nWhat is civic love? It’s love for this place we call home\, expressed by looking out for each other\, connecting with our neighbors\, volunteering for causes we care about\, and honoring our differences as we celebrate our common bonds. \nIn 1997\, psychologist Arthur Aron explored whether love between two perfect strangers could be accelerated by asking each other a set of 36 questions. The 36 Questions for Civic Love were adapted from those questions for a new kind of experiment—aimed at helping us all fall in civic love\, to reconnect with our home and our neighbors. \nWhether you’ve joined us for one or both of the past events\, or this is your first visit\, one of the wonderful things about “Hey Neighbor” is that it’s a new conversation every single time. We hope you’ll join us to learn more about your community\, yourself\, and our connection to this wonderful place we call home. \nSpace is limited. REGISTER HERE!
