An audience Q&A will follow the > conversation. > > In To the Temple of Tranquility…And Step On It!, Begley shares a fountain of > hilarious and poignant stories throughout his life. The memoir is candid and > endearing; in one chapter, he is summoned to Marlon Brando’s house to discuss > the practical uses of electric eels. In another, he tells the story of taking > Annette Bening to the Oscars in “an oddball kit-car that had gull wing doors, > and was nearly impossible to get in or out of, unless you were a yoga master, > which fortunately she was.” Begley’s unmistakable voice is honest and > revealing in a way that only a comic of his caliber can accomplish. Behind > all the stories, Begley has wisdom to impart. This is a book about family, > friends, addiction, failure, redemption, and how we all have a role to play > in saving the planet. > REGISTER FOR THE CONVERSATION WITH ED BEGLEY JR.

Cramer and Sarah Montross > Thursday, March 14, 2024, 6:00 - 7:30pm EST. > > Location: deCordova Sculpture Park & Museum, 51 Sandy Pond Rd, Lincoln, MA > > About the event: Explore the legacy of Thoreau and his iconic cabin with > Jeffrey Cramer, Curator of Collections at The Walden Woods Project, and Sarah > Montross, deCordova’s Chief Curator. They will discuss the new installation > at deCordova, “Huff and a Puff” by Hugh Hayden. > > Texas-born and New York-based artist Hugh Hayden’s practice considers the > anthropomorphization of the natural world as a visceral lens for exploring > the human condition. At deCordova, his original outdoor commission titled > "Huff and a Puff" is a slanted replica of the one-room home where Henry David > Thoreau lived in relative isolation and wrote Walden-Or A Life in the Woods > in 1845. Thoreau’s wood and brick cabin is a modern-day pilgrimage site: a > symbol of American self-reliance, spirituality, political activism, and > ecological consciousness. Hayden planned for the entire cabin—every shingle, > windowpane, and brick—to dramatically slant toward the viewer, conveying a > surreal, tensioned force upon this iconic home. The commission advances > Hayden’s innovations as a sculptor who forges conversations around the myths > and markers of American identity. > REGISTER FOR HUFF AND PUFF HERE > <http://em.networkforgood.com/ls/click?upn=VAGGw4zHikj3d-2F5242H3ZoWQWzg3ZNRmrlq4PN9Ta52ENMAyaNks0fXMVXHzRjUjnFQbWfix4RbN560Bx8gDrfxmq0uW04GQwpEHEcV0-2BYP-2FgBSQnulCKqU5JwEVDTWQ4kxOFnCFVNc2x7hqFuOune5gV-2FZC-2Fv32w4iye-2FHlQY01skKP3yei-2BfOg8RvWTutxDKtByuTucDTkIDlQyAMZ1h4Ki3Mr4iLDaKZp-2FdJCDd74EfhIfw8d9C-2FmfA0DtavIOHRC_tqd-2BXaI1ruR3-2FBIQXt3JYl-2BacCfVweLG-2BUVhKKshrAShCyY54cwJBfKpP2-2BjDlHoKiwzi8XPLVmWV-2B723JFAP1lyC-2BjoEP5jn-2FskUW8veP4692ZV-2BIKaEgGUVm5pcThJe51wCMq0htNUJ6uOiUQZaAm-2Bcs4flR2hSUyn-2FLta71m8pvH8mzoGK1MnqMWk0MWOGI-2FnwJ6mFF8G54daoxzizmT-2FJ6AgM-2FYSG3HeGYmmnBzFDKM986Dgo9h6W7KGU5U-2BRXDmJOD-2BDNBKNB1L1kspUzhr1KnJwlQE8aK3MWPnoU601Xf0dILSHCD8qfToxmzJbq6NDj5UwOlM44-2FAmXQvyZ8FSfHkIjpKwh4vsYrE45g-3D> > > MA Dept. of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) Events at Walden Pond Sponsored > by Friends of Walden Pond: > > The Walden Woods Project is the official, state-designated Friends of Walden > Pond group.
