Secular Hub in Denver

[Steve Pittman]

Hi folks.

I am a member of the Secular Hub in Denver.  The lease is up on the current building we occupy.  We have stored our furniture and equipment in a moving/storage pod and are in the process of searching for another building.

I am not sure if a permanent meeting space is useful for skeptics, humanists, athiests, etc but I am happy that I found and joined the group years ago.  There is a core membership who advocated for, funded, and leased the space years ago, so they obviously believe that a permanent meeting space is useful.  I plan to participate in the process of finding and funding a new space.

I thought you might be interested in a recent article in Westword Magazine about the group.  (No reason for people in the Bay Area to donate to a group in Denver.  Please don't think I am suggesting that you do that.  I just thought that you all might be interested in what is a fairly unique secular group here in Denver.)

Years ago when B and I first moved here we found out about a “humanist” group who owned a building in Oakland. It was a frustration that this group was not who they purported to be, and thus we searched and found our beloved EBSS, sans building. Twenty years earlier I was part of the founding of the Women’s Building in San Francisco which served as a catalyst for a diverse group of women’s organizations, which it is still doing today. It would be so awesome to own or even rent a “home” for humanistic orgs but with real estate and rental costs here as it has been for decades now, it doesn’t seem possible. The Secular Hub is a great idea, wish we had one!!
