This event has ended.

Judith Schaechter’s title Almost Better Angels is from a chapter in Robert Sapolsky’s book Behave. The author concludes that human beings have guarded reasons for optimism when it comes to our biological nature driving our destiny. In these days of mass media’s ‘apocalypse-du-jour’, most artists have questioned their artistic motives and inspirations and have looked for a way to contribute to positive change. Judith Schaechter is among these enthusiastic voices.
