Department of Economics Circle – La Naissance
We are people who love culture and the arts. We enjoy artistic expression and use it as a lens to reflect on ourselves, on each other, and on the world. We don’t shy away from sharing our thoughts, and we treat every story with care and sincerity.
Every Tuesday, we gather to share things we normally can’t say aloud. Sometimes we talk about a cultural or artistic work. Other times, we confide in each other, listen to worries, and have deep, thoughtful conversations. Some days, we reflect on personal struggles, other days, we discuss broader societal issues.
If you’ve ever had thoughts you couldn’t bring yourself to share with anyone—La Naissance might be the space that will listen.
If you want to appreciate art and talk with others about it—La Naissance will be your platform for conversation.
