Dive into the world of knowledge and curiosity with Scholar Talks, a new series at Scholar & Scribe Bookshop. Each event features a thought-provoking presentation by an expert, sparking engaging conversations on topics that matter. This month please join us for a discussion led by Sydney Kale, a PhD student at Ubiquity University. With her academic focus in plant intelligence and phenomenology (the study of how things in the world appear to us and the lived experiences of individuals), Sydney will guide us to a deeper understanding of our enchanted world of plants and our relationship to (and with!) them. Through a general overview, Sydney will illuminate what it means to exist in this enchanted world we share with plants.

From spending time outdoors hiking and camping to building fairy gardens in her backyard, Sydney Kale is a subject matter expert with a deep understanding of the interconnectedness of our ecology, society, and selves.  By attending this event, you will: 

• Enjoy the cozy charm of our bookshop while engaging with fresh ideas. 

• Leave inspired and better informed about this interesting topic.

• Gain an understanding of what it means to exist in the world in a collaborative and connected way.

• Connect with a community of lifelong learners and literary enthusiasts.
