Light, in reality and as a metaphor, holds a central position in our lives. What light do we see in Ethical Culture? How do we incorporate it into our lives? What does this even mean in the aftermath of a historic election that has divided families and communities across the nation? In a time of (metaphorical) darkness, Ethical Culture can be a beacon, calling us together, lighting our way forward.

Sunday Platform is our most important and long-standing community event. These gatherings educate, stimulate personal growth, inspire reflection and action, and strengthen our community. Sunday meetings begin with music, followed by greetings and a talk given by a Society Leader, member, or guest. Platforms cover a variety of topics that reflect current events, pressing social issues, and Humanist philosophy. Each Sunday meeting is followed by a luncheon and social hour.
