The Impact of William Penn and His Holy Experiment: Then and Now

The Impact of William Penn and His Holy Experiment: Then and Now

RSVP HERE

After more than 250 years, what are William Penn’s enduring contributions?  How did Penn’s Quaker values inform his understanding?  Where did the Holy Experiment succeed and where did it fall short?  What would Penn make of Philadelphia, his “Greene Country Towne,” today? 

We gather at the historic Arch Street Friends Meeting House to delve into these questions with Penn scholars and historians. 

This program is part of the Religious Freedom: Then & Now initiative.
