The Ideas Club

About this event

THE IDEAS CLUB (formerly known as The Watershed Community) is made up of friends & neighbors who like to exchange ideas, discuss topics relevant to our current times, explore trusted media, and build an inclusive, caring community of readers, listeners, and thinkers. It’s fun, informative, and inspiring–a social feast of ideas and people. (As of October 2026, meetings will be the 3rd Tuesday of the month, 5:30-7:30 P.M., at Life on Art, 133 Copeland St., Petaluma.)

THE OCTOBER CONVERSATION: WHAT IS COURAGE? How we think, speak, and act is often tied to this lion of virtues. It’s an ageless topic, well-worth discussing today in a world crying out for courage.

RSVP is required and tickets are free!
