May 23: Talk Tuesday. The Sisters of St. Francis’ Franciscan Peace Center in Clinton invites you to watch the TED Talk by Sheikha Al Mayassa titled “Globalizing the local, localizing the global.” Sheikha Al Mayassa is the young and progressive force behind Qatar's mission to become the Middle East's foremost destination for the arts and culture. Sheikha offers her take on reconnecting with tradition, and dealing with the tension of wanting to keep your roots but adapting them to the modern world. She encourages us to maintain our cultural identities, invites us to open the cultural dialogue and to be ambassadors of diversity all over the world.
