Caucasus & its Cultures

A free international learning session about the region

Join us for a free learning session about the history and diverse cultures of the Caucasus Mountains Region. All are welcome.

While the word "Caucasian" has grown beyond its etymology to mean "white" or of "European descent", modern usage has diverged from the roots of the word, which is the specific region around the Caucasus Mountains. This is a place full of its own diverse people, cultures, and histories. Join us to learn more and appreciate some of its unique stories.
