Johanna Skibsrud is looking forward to a collaboration between the English department, Biosphere2 and the artist Jonathon Keats. With support from an RII grant, they will be exploring the art and practice of reading in an expanded sense through community outreach events. Their focus in spring 2025 will be on developing engagement and discussion of Keats’ “Common Law of Nature” project (to be installed at Biosphere2) and the 75th anniversary of the publication of Ray Bradbury’s The Martian Chronicles
