SUMMARY:Greg Sarris at Oakmont Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Join Last Human Bear author Greg Sarris for his talk at the Oakmont Symposium in November\, titled “What the Bear Knows.”  \n\n\n\nWhat if the line between humans and the natural world isn’t as fixed as we think? In this mesmerizing talk\, acclaimed author and tribal leader Greg Sarris explores storytelling\, identity\, and our fragile relationship with nature.  This thoughtful talk will touch on part myth\, part warning\, and part profound reflection on what it means to be human. \n\n\n\nGreg Sarris is an enrolled member of the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria and is currently serving his seventeenth consecutive elected term as chairman of the tribe. He is the author of several books\, including the novel Grand Avenue\, which he adapted for an HBO miniseries and co-executive produced with Robert Redford; the novel Watermelon Nights; Weaving the Dream\, a biography of Mabel McKay; Becoming Story\, a memoir; and the story collections How a Mountain Was Made and The Forgetters. Formerly a full professor of English at UCLA\, Sarris serves on the University of California Board of Regents and the Sundance Institute Board\, and he holds the Distinguished Emeritus Graton Endowed Chair in Native American Studies at Sonoma State University. He lives in Sonoma County\, California. (Photo by Beowulf Sheehan) \n\n\n\n			Register Here

SUMMARY:Obi Kaufmann and Josh Jackson at Skylight Books
DESCRIPTION:From the acclaimed author of The California Field Atlas and The State of Fire\, a mind-expanding manifesto on belonging to the land called California. \n\n\n\n“Kaufmann makes a compelling argument for a decisive new perspective. An urgent message for the future.” —Kirkus\, starred review \n\n\n\nFor more than 250 years\, the story of California has been told through conquest\, self-reinvention\, novelty\, and riches. Beneath that mythology lies another reality: the erasure of Native histories\, the exploitation of natural systems\, and a deepening separation between people and place. As climate breakdown intensifies and natural disasters escalate\, bestselling author Obi Kaufmann challenges us to see the Golden State anew–not as a commodity or fantasy\, but as a living\, interconnected world. \n\n\n\nWith wonder and urgency\, California Inside Out reflects on the boundless intricacies of the world that surrounds\, prompting bold\, imaginative questions: What words might connect us more deeply with the places where we live? What if a watershed can think? What if a forest has a mind of its own? Across five chapters full of wisdom and heart\, Kaufmann shares poignant personal stories and ecological insights from five decades of life in California. Illustrated throughout with his signature watercolor artwork drawn from across Kaufmann’s celebrated career\, this naturalist’s treatise is a call for awe and action. \n\n\n\nObi Kaufmann is an artist\, conservationist\, and the bestselling and award-winning author of The California Field Atlas series. Kaufmann is a former board member of the California Wilderness Coalition and winner of the 2019 Mark Dubois River Protection Award. Notable recent illustration projects include a 2022 residency with the National Wildlife Federation as the illustrator for the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing and a 2025 writing and painting residency for the National Gallery of Art in Yosemite. In 2026 he will participate in an authors’ residency in Stockholm with the Swedish Institute. His most recent book is California Inside Out: Mapping an Ecology of Mind (2026). When he is not backpacking\, the painter-poet can be found at home in the East Bay\, posting trail paintings @coyotethunder on Instagram. \n\n\n\nJoshua Jackson is a writer and photographer whose work explores the overlooked public lands of the American West. His work has appeared in The Guardian\, Los Angeles Times\, High Country News\, SFGATE\, and Adventure Journal\, among others. He has also been a featured guest on numerous podcasts exploring nature\, science\, and conservation. His first book\, The Enduring Wild: A Journey into California’s Public Lands (Heyday\, 2025)\, a winner of the Golden Poppy Award\, is both a love letter to these landscapes and a meditation on belonging and reciprocity. \n\n\n\n			Register Here

SUMMARY:Ken Light at the Oakland Public Library
DESCRIPTION:Uncovered after 50 years\, an absorbing and illuminating photographic archive of Black West Oakland in the 1970s. \n\n\n\nIn 1974 Ken Light\, a young underground press photographer recently arrived in California\, was encouraged by residents of West Oakland to document daily life in the neighborhood. A white activist building relationships in an eminent Black community\, Light was invited into homes and churches\, flagged down on the street for impromptu portraits. The resulting images\, taken over two years\, ended up unpublished and nearly forgotten for half a century. Now made public for the first time in Soul City: Oakland\, U.S.A.\, they form a stunning and historically important archive of Black urban life in a major American city in the 1970s. These photographs reveal the deep pride running through West Oakland\, despite the formidable attempts of local governments and agencies to tear the neighborhood apart. Soul City presents the everyday experiences and emotions of West Oaklanders: hard work\, love\, determination\, resistance\, humor\, delight. \n\n\n\nKen Light is the Reva and David Logan Professor in Photojournalism at the UC Berkeley School of Journalism and he will be in conversation this evening about his book\, his history as a journalist in Oakland and the East Bay\, and the importance of documenting everyday life in our community. \n\n\n\nFollowing the conversation will be audience Q&A and a book signing. Mrs. Dalloway’s will be on site selling copies of the book. \n\n\n\nPlease register to receive updates and reminders. Registration assists with planning; however\, it does not guarantee a seat. Additionally\, masks are encouraged and will be provided. \n\n\n\n			Register Here
