Best known for her bestselling book Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants, Robin Wall Kimmerer invites us to reimagine our relationship with the natural world through the lens of reciprocity, gratitude, and respect.
As a celebrated writer and SUNY Distinguished Teaching Professor of Environmental Biology, Kimmerer brings a unique voice to today’s most pressing ecological questions — one rooted in reverence for the Earth and guided by generations of Indigenous knowledge. Her work, including the upcoming The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World, challenges us to listen deeply to the oldest teachers on Earth: the plants themselves.
This special event, part of the Museum’s yearlong spotlight on Being Human, is an invitation to reflect, reconnect, and reimagine how we live with the land and with each other.
Ticket includes a copy of The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World.
Presented by Bancel Philanthropies.
