We are thrilled to announce a very special event featuring the acclaimed ethnoecologist M. Kat Anderson on the topic of ‘Co-Creators with Nature: Designing Relational Landscapes.’ Best known for her groundbreaking work 'Tending the Wild', Kat will speak to the history of co-creation between earth-based cultures and the natural world, and reflect on how today’s designers and planners can help revive a culture of stewardship based on reciprocity and mutualism.

The event will be in-person only, and include a lecture and group discussion followed by an excursion into the nearby Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge. For the optional after-talk excursion, sturdy shoes appropriate for mud or uneven terrain are recommended.

Event is sponsored by the Climate and Biodiversity Action Committee, and we owe a big thank you to Harper Houf Peterson Righellis (HHPR), who have generously donated the use of their Sellwood office conference room. Light snacks provided. 

Space is limited, so reserve your spot early! Register here.
