St. Anthony of Padua Institute

 

The Saint Anthony of Padua Institute is an organization dedicated to promoting an authentically Catholic community of higher learning in the Bay Area. Current offerings at the National Shrine of Saint Francis of Assisi include: Lectura Dantis on Wednesday nights—a reading group devoted to discussing Dante’s Divine Comedy and other great works of literature, a Friday group discussing Plato’s dialogues and other philosophical texts, and an occasional film series.
