Westcott Lecture: Sarah Lewis

"The Rise - Creativity, the Gift of Failure, and the Search for Mastery" by Sarah Lewis, Founder of Vision & Justice, Harvard Associate Professor and Bestselling Author of The Rise and The Unseen Truth.

"The Rise: Creativity, the Gift of Failure, and the Search for Mastery" is a story-driven investigation into the secrets behind creative human endeavor, and how innovation, mastery, and new concepts are found in unlikely places. In spellbinding talks, Sarah Lewis offers a unique perspective into how we can shift our cultural narratives to ensure everyone is seen and represented, and how we can harness failure to achieve radical innovation.

Sarah is the founder of Vision & Justice, a catalytic civic initiative that generates original research and programs that reveal the foundational role of visual culture in America’s representational democracy.

Sarah's keynote will be followed by Q&A and Book Signing. "The Rise" and "Unseen Truth" can be purchased at www.westcottshop.org. You can make a purchase through our online store or onsite at 85 South Greenmount Avenue, Tuesday through Sunday, 10am-5pm.
