Join the Cambridge Memorial Library for the Speakers Bureau presentation “Sacred Iowa: Spiritual Sites in the Heartland” by author Lori Erickson.

Iowa has a surprisingly rich sacred landscape, from historic churches and monasteries to Indigenous sites, religious communities, cemeteries, shrines, and places in nature that invite reflection. Drawing on travel stories, history, and photographs, this program explores some of Iowa’s most fascinating spiritual places—and asks what makes a place sacred in the first place.
