The Artists Loop presents Maggie Jackson in Conversation with Sarah Jane Lapp

November 7 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm

Wanskuck Library – Adult Area

Uncertain

In an age of tumult, quick answers and neat bullet points seem the ticket to success.  We fear not-knowing and equate being unsure with weakness.  But an urgent rethink is due: the uncertainty that we shun turns out to be the mindset most needed in an era of flux and angst.

In this interactive evening, pioneering author Maggie Jackson draws on her acclaimed new book Uncertain to explore why we should seek not-knowing in an age of flux and angst. She will be in conversation with renowned local artist Sarah Jane Lapp.  Book signing to follow courtesy of Heartleaf Books.
