Seeds of Hope is part of the Cherie Hill IrieDance’s Earth Echoes Virtual Project series in partnership with the David Brower Center. This series launches on November 14th with a panel discussion on art and environmental justice and will include a premiere of a new dance film, shot and edited by Alexa Burrell, and a screening of clips from Maathai’s documentary, “Taking Root: The Vision of Wangari Maathai.”

Join us virtually in conversation with women working at the forefront of ensuring that non-white voices and artistic expression are centered in this critical movement.
