History of the Winter Lecture Series
The Winter Lecture Series began at Vine Congregation Church in 1985. The first year the topic of the Series was Central America. That topic set the early trend of the Series focusing each year on a single country or a region of the world. In 2001 the Unitarian Church inherited the Winter Lecture Series. With that change, besides focusing on single countries or regions, sometimes our annual topics were cross-cutting issues such as human rights, or poverty, or environmental issues.
Our goal is to provide unbiased information to our attendees—information provided by experts from local or distant Universities and organizations such as the US State Department. Although bringing experts from other states and countries is expensive, our lectures are always free and open to the public, and no registration is required.
Support for our lectures has been provided each year by grants from Humanities Nebraska (formally the Nebraska Humanities Council), UNL OLLI (Osher Lifelong Learning Institute), and the Social Justice Committee of the Unitarian Church of Lincoln.
