INDIANAPOLIS — A bestselling author and decorated professor is slated to speak at the Eiteljorg Museum this summer.
Robin Well Kimmerer, who wrote the popular books "Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants" and "Gathering Moss" will speak at the museum for a special event on July 12.
Kimmerer is a mother, decorated professor and enrolled member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation.
She will be in conversation with Purdue University’s Felica Ahasteen-Bryant, director of Purdue’s Native American Educational and Cultural Center.
The event is part of the museum's summer offerings, which also include screenings of the documentary "Liminal: Indiana in the Anthropocene," in which filmmakers Zach Schrank and Aaron Yoder give a birds-eye view of the surface of Indiana and the Campfires treks series.
