About the event

The evening will open with a conversation between Megan Mayhew Bergman, Cindy Hill, Caleb Kenna and Jon Mingle, moderated by writer and educator Liza Cochran, about the role of the arts and humanities in shaping our connection to the climate crisis. The second hour will engage participants in what poet Jane Hirshfield calls finding "simple astonishment," and the curative power of creating art as we face the crisis of our lifetime. In small groups, participants will be guided through a close observation and reflection in response to selected images from the Sheldon's archives and modern images from photographer Caleb Kenna.

Free and Open to All!!
