Cincinnati's Festival of Faiths: A Tremendous Interfaith Celebration Returns!

Cincinnati is set to honor its rich religious diversity for the eighth consecutive year with the Festival of Faiths, commencing on Sunday, June 22, at the Cintas Center. This vibrant gathering invites attendees of all ages to enjoy food, music, meditation, and enlightening discussions from over 30 faith-based organizations, spanning more than a dozen world religions, including Sikh, Zoroastrian, and Unitarian traditions. Following the festival, online programming continues, culminating in a new event, "Gathering for Good," hosted at the Grail in Loveland on June 29. EquaSion, a civic organization dedicated to fostering interfaith dialogue in Greater Cincinnati, organizes both events free of charge. Amidst societal division, Executive Director Chip Harrod emphasizes the importance of unity and shared humanity. "In these polarized times, we must celebrate our common bonds," he states. The festival promises engaging workshops, cultural displays, and youth activities, ensuring an unforgettable experience for all. "This is a unique opportunity to connect and learn," adds Sandy Kaltman, EquaSion’s Vice President.
