Public Philosophy Night

A new annual series is soon kicking off at the Spokane Public Library, in partnership with Eastern Washington University and Inland Northwest Public Philosophy, a coalition of local philosophy students and educators. Billed as “an after-hours community event to share and celebrate philosophy and ideas through public lectures, literary readings and discussions,” the inaugural event kicks off with a keynote from Spokane author Jess Walter. Sessions throughout the three-hour evening program include presentations about homelessness from Spokane advocate Ryan Oelrich, as well as open discussion with EWU philosophy students, a panel with the Center for Justice and more.
