What is Beauty?

An Invitation to Reflect, Discuss, and Experience

Reading - Ascent to Beauty (Symposium 201–212) https://www.platonicfoundation.org/translation/symposium/

Join us for a thoughtful morning of philosophical exploration as we consider one of life’s most enduring questions: What is beauty?

We’ll begin with brief readings from classical philosophers—Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus, and others—mixed with informal discussion.

Afterward, we’ll take our reflections outdoors on a gentle guided walk through the beautiful gardens of the West End.

🕥 10:15 AM – Meet @ Café
🕥 10:30 AM – Readings and conversation
🕚 11:00 AM – Guided walk through the gardens of St James and St Basil, ending at the award-winning Moorside Allotments

Come for the conversation, the walk, or both—everyone is welcome.

Admission is free.
