CRMS Speaker Series - Craig Childs

Homeland: Visions of the American Landscape author and explorer Craig Childs comes to Carbondale for an evening of off-the-map experiences from Utah to Florida to the ecological wastelands of Iowa. In a time when the identity of a country seems in the air, we will be looking to the ground, to the land under our feet. This will be a powerful, thought-provoking performance of images and words, one night only at CRMS. ABOUT THE SPEAKER: Childs has published more than a dozen critically acclaimed books, including his most recent book, Apocalyptic Planet, which won the Orion Book Award and the Sigurd F. Olson Nature Writing Award. His work has appeared in the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Men’s Journal, and Outside.
