“DON’T MISS” EVENTS
There are often events hosted by private parties here at PCA that are open to the public that you may want to know about.
Check out these happenings:

Consider This: Humans, Land, and Animals
May 22, 7:00–8:30 p.m. Free.

Join Oregon Humanities for a conversation with Bobby Fossek, Erica Berry, and Wendy Bingham about living in community with animals and plants. Some animals and plants are welcomed by people, and others we reject or try to eradicate. How do we decide which living things belong, and what do these decisions show about our place on the land?
This live, onstage conversation is part of Oregon Humanities’ 2023–24 Consider This series, Fear and Belonging.
