You are invited to an intriguing evening of events, exploring the role of the performing arts in agricultural development, as part of Bram Govaerts’ (Director General of CIMMYT) mini visit to Cornell as an A.D. White Professor-at-Large.

Climate change, global markets, and industry can create situations that lead to migration and food insecurity.

Sarah K. Chalmers (Freelance facilitator and artist) and Debra Ann Castillo (Latina/o Studies Program) are designing an evening of performances and conversations together with Johannes Lehmann (CALS-Crop & Social Sciences), imagining a cross-cutting movement to build bridges to address some of the greatest challenges of our time.

This event is open to all, and there will be free dinner and free drinks provided.
