Origin Opening Session w Author & Tolkien Expert, Matthew Dickerson

Art House North

Come in-person to Art House North to watch this live-streamed event from Art House Dallas feat. author & Tolkien expert, Matthew Dickerson

I﻿nstead of just streaming in our separate homes, we thought we would open up Art House North to anyone who would like to join us to watch this event live from Art House Dallas - it's confusing, we know, but there will be snacks. Join us as we welcome Matthew Dickerson for an evening conversation exploring mortality and vocation through the lens of J.R.R. Tolkien's short story Leaf by Niggle. This is the opening event of the 2023 Origin Series: On Mortality. With so much money and effort invested in attempting to lengthen the span of human life even to the extreme point of one day possibly eliminating death altogether, it is wise to return to simpler questions that remind us of what it means to be human and what it means to flourish in a created world where all things die. What value then does human creativity and art have in the shadow of death and mortality? And further to the point, what does mortality have to do with art and its appreciation?
