Come hear from Bowser Hutson and Sophie Killingley as they kick around a main idea from their upcoming Play Book.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Far from being an escape from reality, art can be an invitation to align with reality, both for the maker and the recipient. But developing a taste for reality requires both courage and good cheer. The life of Saint Lawrence, patron saint of comedians, will provide a starting point for a discussion of courage, humor, holiness, and creativity.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Do you write, sing, play music, paint, sculpt, dance, etc., but you’re afraid to say you’re an artist? You are not alone! Hear from panelists who have struggled themselves with owning their artistry and still struggle sometimes. Bring questions and expect diverse answers, knowing we are in this together, figuring this thing out called artistry.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Oxford is brimming with stories and rousing conversations that shaped the works of people like C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien. For the last 4 1/2 years, Sally Clarkson has immersed herself in these stories and historical moments while living there and working with people from all over the world. She will share anecdotes from Lewis and wisdom gathered from experiences in Oxford, drawing from her newest book, Well Lived, a photographic journal of Oxford.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ned will draw from Leslie’s writings in her recent book Tiny Thoughts That I’ve Been Thinking, his book with Stephen Roach called Naming the Animals, and a lifetime of obsessive naming of things to consider why naming matters and why we should invest our time and creativity into not leaving any of our work “untitled”.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
