Ideally, during these conversations we share love, support, interest, and often humor. Back by popular demand, Jennifer Moss will provide helpful ideas for successful interactions for this and other gatherings. Topics will include learning how to share and appreciate the unique narratives within our family, mastering the art of listening, and exploring ways to build traditions and experiences that bring family and friends closer. Jennifer teaches several popular classes at the University of Richmond’s OSHER program. Participants will be invited to share their favorite Thanksgiving blessings.
