Join The Constellation Project for a special screening of the film,
Gift, based on the book by Lewis Hyde, chronicling gift-based cultures
from around the world. A tribute to the values of creativity,
sustainability, and generosity in a culture increasingly governed by
money and the view of art as commodity. Lewis Hyde will be discussing
both his book and the film, followed by a panel discussion on the
social, spiritual, and environmental implications of embracing a
gift-giving culture moderated by HDS writer-in-residence Terry Tempest
Williams with Joan Naviyuk Kane and Samuel S. Myers. An audience Q & A
will conclude the evening.
