Conference: West of Walden: Thoreau in the 21st Century
April 7-8 (Fri.-Sat.) The sun is but a morning star. Walden's famous last line points eastward to the sunrise; but Henry David Thoreau also wrote of the west, the sunset, and day's end. To mark Thoreau's bicentennial year, this conference will pose the question: How can we read Thoreau from the sundown side, the far west of his imagination? Can we see, in the awakening light of the sunset, another anticipation of the dawn?
Registration for this two-day conference is $25, with an optional buffet lunch each day for $20.
Conference registration is $10 for current Huntington docents and free for current Long-Term Fellows and students with a current Student I.D. Please bring your current I.D. to event day check-in. Students, please note school affiliation after your name when registering.
