Emerson’s Nature in Lincoln: A Virtual Reading with Ron McAdow

Join for a special Zoom presentation with Ron McAdow as he reads selected excerpts from Ralph Waldo Emerson’s groundbreaking first book, Nature. First published in 1836, Nature laid the foundation for the Transcendentalist movement and continues to shape how we think about our relationship with the natural world.

In this engaging virtual program, Ron brings Emerson’s words to life and pairs them with original photographs taken right here in Lincoln. By connecting Emerson’s timeless reflections with the landscapes we know and love, this presentation invites us to see our conserved lands with fresh perspective and renewed appreciation.
