In collaboration with the Fort Collins Interfaith Council and the Museum of Discovery, the 301 faith partners are hosting 10 posters related to the upcoming museum exhibit The Bias Inside Us.

It serves as a centerpiece for local programs and activities that raise awareness about the science and history of bias. The goal is to help people understand implicit bias and create deeper empathy for one another.”
Each poster has a QR code with further information.
The exhibit will be at the Museum of Discovery from November 27 – December 31, 2024. On Tuesday, November 26 from 6-8pm, “Hear from Odia-Wood Kreuger, Smithsonian Program Outreach Coordinator, about the goals of the Bias Inside Us Project, the research behind the exhibit, and the implementation of this nationwide project. Then get a first look at The Bias Inside Us exhibit that will open to the public the next day.” You can register online here.

On the last Monday of each month at 10:30 am, the 301 Faith Partners Prayer Group meets to pray for the 301 Faith Partners! The group opens by calling on the Holy Spirit to be present.
