Wallowa Land Trust Lecture: What We Want From The Wild
What We Want from the Wild: A Conversation with Adam Davis - Thursday, July 14th: 7pm at the Josephy Center (403 N. Main St., Joseph)
Oregonians across the political spectrum place a high value on the diverse natural resources of our state, but we are divided about how these resources should be used and talked about. Oregon Humanities Executive Director Adam Davis will help participants step back from policy decisions and consider more basic questions about our relationship to the mountains, air, trees, animals, and streams around us. What do we want from nature? What do we understand nature to be, and how do we see ourselves fitting in?
This is the focus of “What We Want from the Wild,” a free conversation with Adam Davis on Thursday, July 14th, 2016 at 7pm at Josephy Center for Arts and Culture. This program is hosted by Wallowa Land Trust and sponsored by Oregon Humanities.
Davis is the executive director of Oregon Humanities. His previous roles include directing the Center for Civic Reflection, where he helped the Aldo Leopold Foundation develop their Land Ethic Leader training, and the United States Forest Service, where he led backcountry trail crews and occasionally fought wildland fire. He has taught courses and led workshops on the human relationship to nature.
Through the Conversation Project, Oregon Humanities offers free programs that engage community members in thoughtful, challenging conversations about ideas critical to their daily lives and Oregon state's future.
