Philosophia

The Philosophy Cafe, Folkestone

The Philosophy Cafe aims to be a safe space to consider topics of interest from a philsophical perspective.

Topics are chosen in advance. Open, considered, respectful, contributions are our way. Academic knowledge of philosophy is not expected. Appropriate, short, introductory resources to help participants familiarise themselves with the subject prior to a discussion are provided before each cafe.

If you would like to attend please contact Maggie Boyle boyle.mm@gmail.com
