Being Ghosted: Why Are We Haunted by Nikki Kendra Davis at Antiques on High

Welcome to The Siposium where the curious gather to expand their understanding of the world. With drinks. We will mingle, play a game, listen to our speaker, and end the night with thoughtful discussion.

This month we are featuring:

Being Ghosted: Why Are We Haunted?

You are being haunted. Whether you like it or not, whether you acknowledge them or not, ghosts inform how you move through this world, how you interact with others, and how you view the past and consider the future. How might we commune with ghosts to better learn from the past and fight for a better future? This spooky season (made all the scarier by election season), join haunted scholar and artist Nikki Kendra Davis for an interactive talk about all things ghosts, history, and hauntings.
