SUMMARY:AWE+2025 Collaborative: Wildfire & Beyond – Building an Adaptable and Resilient World
DESCRIPTION:AWE+ is a DRI global initiative formed in 2024. Reflecting the four classical elements of nature – air\, water\, earth\, and fire – AWE+ advances community resilience and adaptability in the face of increasing\, inevitable catastrophes that affect human lives and environmental ecosystems. It addresses tough challenges by promoting actionable solutions through interdisciplinary collaboration. \nThe AWE+2025 Collaborative will be both a reflective and transitional exercise. It will carry forward and reinforce the objectives of last year’s AWE+2024 summit where DRI brought together stakeholders of various disciplinary backgrounds to consider matters of resilience and recovery in light of the devastating impacts of wildfire. AWE+2025 will build on the 2024 conversations and examine in greater depth the cascading impacts of wildfire and smoke such as heatwaves\, flooding\, and droughts. Its goal is to: \n\nHighlight and prompt the continuing and urgent need for community\, regional\, and state leadership in taking action to strengthen our communities to mitigate inevitable catastrophes that are compounded by changes in climate\, land use\, and population.\nPromote interdisciplinary\, cross-sector collaboration as essential in strengthening the resolve for tough decision making on consequential impacts and challenges to achieve meaningful progress.\n\nWe invite 2024 participants to continue the conversation and welcome persons new to the AWE+ experience to join right in. \nVisit the AWE+ website for more information and to register!

SUMMARY:The View from Here: Stories of Perspective and Discovery
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of storytelling that explores the world through new perspectives and the discoveries they inspire. ‘The View from Here’ invites you to see how technology\, curiosity\, and innovation allow us to view our surroundings in ways never before possible. From scientific breakthroughs to personal insights\, these stories reveal how shifting our perspective can unlock a deeper understanding of the world around us. \nPurchase tickets online!  \nDRI Storyteller: \nEric Wilcox\nDr. Wilcox is a DRI researcher focused on the interactions between aerosols\, clouds\, and precipitation to better understand regional climate variability\, radiative forcing of climate at regional scales\, and precipitation processes. His work combines satellite data\, in-situ observations\, and atmospheric modeling to study cloud dynamics and their climatic impacts. As leader of DRI’s atmospheric modeling group\, he employs high-resolution regional and global climate models for applications in water resources\, renewable energy\, and air quality. Additionally\, he directs the ASTER Laboratory\, advancing unmanned aircraft systems for environmental research.  \nFeatured Speaker: \nMichael Branch\, who is University Foundation Professor\, Emeritus at UNR\, is an award-winning writer and humorist who lives with his wife and two daughters in the western Great Basin Desert. His published work includes 300 essays and ten books\, among them the Pulitzer Prize-nominated John Muir’s Last Journey. His trilogy of humorous creative nonfiction from the high desert includes Raising Wild\, Rants from the Hill\, and How to Cuss in Western. His most recent book\, On the Trail of the Jackalope\, which braids humor\, science\, and the arts and humanities\, has been called “an entertaining and enlightening road trip to the heart of an American legend.” Mike was the 2024 inductee into the Nevada Writers Hall of Fame.

SUMMARY:The Possible Unknown: Stories about Exploring the Unreachable
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of storytelling that delves into the mysteries of exploring what once seemed unreachable. ‘The Possible Unknown’ highlights stories of curiosity\, innovation\, and determination that open doors to new frontiers—whether through groundbreaking technology\, scientific discovery\, or personal journeys. Discover how the impossible becomes possible and the unknown becomes accessible to all. \nPurchase tickets online! \nDRI Storyteller: \nMegan Stueve will tell a story that is still unfolding. She is documenting hiking trails throughout the state parks in Nevada using 3D technology. The result is an immersive digital space that makes Nevada’s stunning landscapes accessible to all. \n  \n  \n  \nFeatured Storyteller: \nRyan Cooper has spent the last decade building world-class endurance races and most recently for the IRONMAN Group\, all while chasing his own dreams…but one journey changed everything. Ryan invites audiences to reflect on what it means to chase dreams\, confront loss\, and find meaning in the mountains—both literal and metaphorical. \n  \n  \nDr. Julian Kilker is a media scholar specializing in emerging technologies and their impact\, and most recently guest-edited the open-source journal Tradition-Innovations’ issue on “Artificial Intelligence and Possible Future for the Arts.” His research on innovation and visual methods spans work exhibited in Switzerland\, Washington DC\, California\, and Nevada and multiple academic publications. \nAdditional Experience: Attendees are encouraged to visit At the Heart of Basin and Range\, a Nevada Humanities exhibition located right next door at the Nevada Humanities Program Gallery (next to Vegas Theatre Company). The gallery will be open from 1:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.\, inviting guests to explore this companion exhibit before or after the event. Julian Kilker\, Co-Curator to this exhibit will also be a featured storyteller for this Curiosity Lab event. \nThank you to our community partner Nevada Humanities  \n \nThis production is not a Vegas Theatre Company event.
