Honoring Winona LaDuke: Smith Nature Symposium Awards Ceremony

Saturday, October 2, 2021
7:00 PM CDT - 8:30 PM CDT

Celebrate environmental leadership at Brushwood Center's live-streamed Smith Nature Symposium Awards Ceremony as we explore climate justice and healing through the power of community!

Join Winona LaDuke, 2021 Distinguished Environmental Leadership Awardee, with our acclaimed hosts, TV journalist Bill Kurtis and producer Donna LaPietra, for a dynamic discussion about climate solutions, focusing on LaDuke's grassroots advocacy with Honor the Earth to stop the 1,000 mile Line 3 oil sands pipeline stretching from Alberta to Lake Superior. The pipeline, which would cross 200 bodies of water, violates U.S. treaties with the Ojibwe people that establish their right to hunt, fish, and gather along the proposed route. LaDuke's vital work to mobilize community and protect these sacred lands embodies the courage, creativity, and tenacity required to build a vibrant future and equitable economy.

The Awards Ceremony also includes songs by Seven Springs Drum, presentation of Brushwood Center's Youth Leadership Scholarship to Waukegan-based Eduardo Flores, and celebration of Brushwood Center's impact in our community.

Proceeds from the Smith Nature Symposium support Brushwood Center’s COVID-19 response and our work to advance equitable access to healing, learning, and empowerment through nature and the arts.
