Join co-hosts Children & Nature Network and REI for an evening with Richard Louv, the internationally bestselling author of “Last Child in the Woods,” in conversation with Sally Jewell, former U.S. Secretary of the Interior and CEO of REI. Rich and Sally will explore the ideas at the heart of Louv’s newest and most personal book, “Noticing: Intimate Encounters with the Natural World.” Together, they’ll discuss what it means to cultivate what Louv calls “bioenchantment”: a deeper, more embodied relationship with the natural world that can restore our sense of wonder, ground our sense of self, and offer hope in a time that sorely needs it. 

The event will also feature opening comments from Mary Beth Laughton, President and CEO of REI, and Monica Lopez Magee, incoming President and CEO of the Children & Nature Network — and followed by a book signing with Richard Louv.

This event will take place at:

Town Hall Seattle
Wyncote NW Forum
1119 8th Ave (Entrance off Seneca St.)
Seattle, 98101

It will also be livestreamed from the Children & Nature Network YouTube at this link, where you can also find a recording after the event. The livestream is made possible by Algonquin Books.
