Hear author Sarah Williams Goldhagen discuss how recent advances in neuroscience and environmental psychology prove there are no neutral built environments—but, rather, ones that either positively or negatively impact daily lives. She argues that new understanding of human perception and cognition makes it urgent that we completely re-conceptualize the role of built environment design in everyday life as an issue of social justice and public health. Following the talk, she signs copies of her book Welcome to Your World (HarperCollins, 2017), which is available for purchase in the Museum Shop.

Join us from 5:30–6:30 pm for a reception held before the program.
