Roman Forum lectures in New York

I've been asked to advertise these lectures, which have been organised by the Roman Forum (founded by Dietrich von Hildebrand) for many years. This season look interesting as ever. Even in the age of blogs, there's nothing like hearing ideas set out directly by a human being and being able to ask questions and meet other audience members. The lectures are organised by Dr John Rao.

They take place in the Church Hall of University Church of St. Joseph, 371 Sixth Avenue
New York, N.Y.
The entrance to the Church Hall is on Washington Place, south of Waverly Place.
Subway: A, B, C, D, E, F, V to West 4th Street. Wheelchair accessible.
