This Saturday: Too Much Information Nº5

Join us this Saturday for Too Much Information Nº5

It took me years to understand
that this, too, was a gift.
— Mary Oliver

We’re delighted to invite you to Too Much Information Nº5, our symposium for creative minds of all ages, which returns to Problem Library this Saturday, August 23.

This all-day love letter to the theme we’ve been exploring all season—*This, too, is a gift—*invites us to reflect on the gifts we have received, those we have to give, and what might unfold if we choose to see all parts of our lives as gifts.

Join us for a day of reflection and exchange as we close the summer together, carrying its gifts forward into a fall rich with gratitude.

Details, Schedule and other information below.
