Join Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer, a writer of “rare grace,” for her talk, “What does the earth ask of us?”
Kimmerer weaves together indigenous wisdom, science, and profound spiritual insight to reimagine our connection to the living world. Drawing from her background as both a botanist and a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, Kimmerer invites all of us to understand ecological systems with gratitude, mutual respect, and interconnectedness, allowing us to recognize the entire natural world as worthy of care.
Her talk will be followed by a chamber music concert performed by a flute quartet featuring Alex Sopp, flute; Simone Porter & Owen Dalby, violins; Milena Pajaro-van de Stadt, viola; and Arlen Hlusko, cello. In response to Kimmerer’s work, this musical program, curated by Grace Farms Artist-in-Residence Arlen Hlusko, features composers who often derive musical inspiration from their relationships with nature.
