The Oasis This Time: Book talk and discussion with author Rebecca Lawton
Water, the most critical fluid on the planet, is seen as savior, benefactor, and Holy Grail in many arid North American communities. Fluvial geologist and former Colorado River guide Rebecca Lawton will explore this topic when she joins us for a reading and conversation about her latest book of essays The Oasis This Time: Living and Dying with Water in the West.
This event is presented in conjunction with the Smithsonian Water|Ways exhibition on display at the Swaner EcoCenter now until March 27, 2021.
