Spirit & Place Festival

Thank you to everyone who made the 2022 Spirit & Place Festival possible! We’d love to hear what you thought about the events you attended and invite you to complete a survey today. 

To relive the festival, watch a recording of our opening night kick-off event with Manon Voice and Wildstyle Paschall and don’t forget to check out the extended interview between the two!

Did you catch this year’s Public Conversation? We unpacked everything from the power of storytelling (and media images) to the nature of patriotism while exploring the topic of “American Identity.” Want to watch a recording? Drop us a quick request at festival@iupui.edu.

    We Believe . . .

    We are shaped by the places we come from and shape those places in turn.

    We believe in the power of the arts, humanities, and religion to strengthen and build community, foster deeper connections, and heal the world around us. Taking a people-centered approach, we invest time into building authentic relationships and co-create programming and capacity-building opportunities that address and reflect community needs and values. Housed in the IU School of Liberal Arts at IUPUI, Spirit & Place is a self-funded, radically unique platform based on an ethos of fairness, hospitality, and equity.

    Learn more about our beliefs and values on our “Who We Are” page.
