Community Voices In Conversation: South Asian Heritage

Panelists from our South Asian community, whose stories are showcased in our Community Voices exhibit, will share their Aurora lived experiences in a facilitated discussion. All are welcome.

Panelists will answer questions posed by a moderator, and there will be time at the end for questions from the audience. This event will complement our Community Voices exhibit, which showcases contributions from all of our panelists and will be displayed at Santori Library, Eola Road Branch, West Branch, and virtually via our website from November 6 to December 6. Through our live, in-person event, we will have the chance to come together and dive deeper into the themes that emerged from the exhibit. Appetizers and refreshments will be served while supplies last.

This event will take place in Room 104 at the FVPD Eola Community Center, which shares a building with our Eola Road Branch. The Eola Community Center is located at 555 S. Eola Rd | Aurora, IL 60504.

What is Community Voices?

Community Voices is a collaboration between the library and the community in which the library provides space for community members to share their individual stories. We center Community Voices exhibits around particular heritages or identities that are meaningful for our community. The mission of Community Voices is to celebrate diverse experiences, foster connections, cultivate empathy, and nurture a sense of belonging at the library.
