Live music presented by August Watters on mandolin and Jose Lezcano on guitar will precede this Sunday’s Monadnock Lyceum presentation at the Unitarian Universalist Church.

Watters and Lezcano will perform at 10:30 a.m. on Sunday, July 31, with the lyceum program beginning at 11 a.m. sharp.

Dr. Karl Kaiser will speak on “Refugees in Europe: Overture to a Global Crisis.” How can we end the suffering of huge numbers of people, culturally integrate them into European societies, stem the rise of anti-immigrant right wing movements, and preserve Europe’s greatest post-war achievement in overcoming the conflicts of the past, the European Union? All of these challenges must be faced amid growing internal disagreements.

Following the talk, all are invited to a reception at the Mariposa Museum for refreshments and to view an exhibit on “Inclusion Matters.”

The presentation is free but donations are appreciated. Childcare is available.
