The Crown Institute invites you to a stirring keynote lecture by The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row. When asked if he felt anger toward those who wrongly imprisoned him, Mr. Hinton replied, “I chose to stay vigilant to any signs of anger or hate in my heart. They took thirty years of my life. If I couldn’t forgive, if I couldn’t feel joy, that would be like giving them the rest of my life.”

Join us at Yellow Barn Farm for a volunteer action day with Eco-Cycle! Immerse yourself in the process of regenerating healthy soil: get your hands dirty turning the farm’s compost pile and spreading mulch!

“What Was Ours” is the story of how a young journalist, Jordan Dresser, and a teenage powwow princess, both of the Arapaho tribe, traveled together with a Shoshone elder in search of missing artifacts in the vast archives of Chicago’s Field Museum. There they discover a treasure trove of ancestral objects, setting them on a journey to recover what has been lost and build hope for the future. Join Jordan for a talk-back after the film.

Join us for the Fall Farm Hop tour of Elk Run Farm and Yellow Barn Farm, and celebrate the start of the harvest season with us at the Farm Fest, a vendor market with our local farmers, artists, and small businesses + live music and food!
