Seasons of Play Play is a defining characteristic of human nature—it acts as a means to connect, a method of subversion, a way to teach and communicate, a space for exploration and imagination, and a place to use our senses and connect with the world in an embodied way. This Green College Leading Scholars series engages with play as a critical practice across time, place, and space, asking the fundamental question: how can play help us learn, think, and teach? We orient our conversations through the cyclicity of the seasons, grounded in Indigenous understandings of wise practices. Our series is fundamentally experiential and embodied, incorporating opportunities for active participation in each session. Series Conveners: Tolulope Akinwole, English Language and Literatures; Ji-yoon An, Asian Studies; Katelynn Boerner, Pediatrics; Tahia Devisscher, Forest Resources Management; Scott Franks, Law; Alexandra Hoffman, Asian Studies; Germaine Koh, Art History, Visual Art, and Theory; Nicole Krentz, Pharmaceutical Sciences; Anabel Maler, Music; Elizabeth "Biz" Nijdam, Central, Eastern, and Northern European Studies; Jac Nobiss, Social Work; Gilberto Alexi Rodríguez Arelis, Statistics; Kiran Kaur Sunar, Asian Studies; and Alexandra Tavasoli, Mechanical Engineering Event Dates: Sept 16, Oct 7, Nov 4, Jan 27, Feb 25, Mar 26 |

 Where the Waves Take Us: Art, Identity, and the Sea is a multidisciplinary exploration of creativity and the ocean, and of the relationship between humans and the natural world. The ocean is a world unto itself, as well as a site for human journeys; traversing them links to themes of identity, (im)migration, and human connections to our environment. UBC’s coastal location and the ocean's fluctuations due to climate change heightens the relevance of engaging with the sea and our connection to water in thoughtful and insightful ways. The series’ guests include writers, a singer-songwriter, and a playwright, with a body of work that engages with nature and communities through the lens of both past and present. I am excited to discuss and share their creativity with the Green College community. Series Convener: Clara Kumagai, 21st writer in residence at Green College |
 An experience in deep listening, each Whole Cloth Reading Series event features a single poet who reads an entire book of poems from cover to cover. While poets devote immense craft to shaping a book, public readings tend to favor selections and excerpts. Uniting writer and audience in a celebration of expansive and unhurried attention, this series creates a rare environment for the investigation of poetry, sound, delivery and reciprocity. Each event features a transformative (short!) book and concludes in time for a cordial reception and conversation. Series Conveners: Elee Kraljii Gardiner, Poet Laureate of Vancouver; and Bronwen Tate, Creative Writing Event Dates: Oct 15, other dates TBA |
