UNL Hyde Lecture Series: Michael Grove

4:00 PM16:00

UNL Hyde Lecture Series: Michael Grove

For this lecture, Grove expounds the virtues of working with a global lens and perspective. Historically, landscape architecture has suffered from a predominantly parochial viewpoint. While a hyper-local perspective is critical, it is equally important to recognize that societal issues are interrelated, interdependent and international.

NDC ASLA Annual Fall Conference

  • Hot Shops Art Center (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

People to People. People to Places. People to Resources. People to Ideas. People to Nature. People to Art. People to People. Cultivating connections is often our role as landscape architects and design professionals. Making a connection and then developing and growing that connection is often circular, starting with connecting people to people and ending with the same. Constant cultivation is what grows and builds these connections and that takes an investment, not only in our people, but in the places surrounding and nurturing them. Join us in Omaha as we explore not only the connections, but the investment this community has put forth in cultivating existing and future connections.
