What makes a life worth living? What does it mean to seek what is good, beautiful, and true?

Once a month, we gather around these questions for listening deeply and engaging with curiosity.  Our Pilgrim Way Salons are curated evenings of conversation, hospitality, and reflection hosted in a welcoming space, with drinks and light fare to begin.

"What’s a salon?"
It’s not just a haircut—or a fancy term. Historically, salons were intimate gatherings in homes where people explored big ideas through civil, spirited conversation. That’s what we’re reclaiming.

Each evening features a guest speaker or expert voice, followed by guided dialogue and generous Q&A. Whether you’re skeptical, spiritual, curious, or convicted, come pull up a chair. There’s room at the table.

What does it mean to truly pay attention?
For our June salon, we welcome Denver printmaker Kim Morski for a conversation on art, attention, and the sacred ordinary. Morski's work asks hard questions about what we miss when screens mediate our experience — and what it costs us. Her prints, handmade objects, and artist's books use humor, history, and unexpected materials to name the dehumanizing pull of digital life and call us back to embodied presence. This is work that notices. Come ready to look, talk, and slow down.

Kim Morski's work centers on the act of reconciling — giving an account, facilitating restoration, making things congruous. Working primarily in printmaking, she combines her own imagery and text with found and appropriated content to build non-linear narratives that touch specific events while reaching toward broader human questions. Her subjects range from Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations to Cold War military operations, drawn together by a persistent interest in what it takes for people to actually connect.

Morski’s current work looks how we can recapture our sense of intuition as an antidote to the dehumanizing effects of technology.
