EarthSpeak: An Immersive Sound and Spoken Word Event

Museum of Glass and Inspiration Lab are partnering to bring you EarthSpeak, a one-hour spoken word and sound experience that draws inspiration from selected themes in Bewilderment, Richard Powers’ 2021 novel that grapples with the climate crisis, extinction, biodiversity loss, and the emotional weight of loving a planet in peril. This event is one of a series of events funded by Museum of Glass 2026 NEA Big Read grant.

Earth Speak features remembrances, and collective healing through an immersive event that evokes Earth’s voice through soundscapes and poetic responses to climate change.

Spoken Word: Jourdan Imani Keith, Storme Webber, Jen Moore, and Monique Franklin,

EarthSpeaks Sound Bath: Jen Moore,

Selected nature sounds: Maluhia Castillo.
