The Handmade Life: Myth, Beauty & the Nature of Soul with Dr Martin Shaw

A Ralston College Event We are beset by a tyranny of choice and frequently told we can be anything we want to be. Myths see it differently. The old stories suggest we are here to do something quite specific. In this unique immersive event, Dr Martin Shaw, New York Times bestselling author of Liturgies of the Wild: Myths That Make Us, unfurls stories and ideas he calls “ancient technologies” that open up what a handmade life could look like. Such attention requires care as well as focus. In this era of AI and its attendant opportunities, how are humanity's beautiful imperfections hallmarks of a sane culture? What would a covenant with limits actually look like? Expect rich storytelling, shared conversation, and vivid ideas in our time together in the gardens of Savannah’s historic Ships of the Sea Museum. $145 General | $55 Students & Ralston Alumni Seasonal dinner included. Registration requested by October 10. Visit ralston.ac to learn more.
