"Notes on What Matters: Conversations and Music on Challenges, Choices and What Holds Us Together.”

In this time how do we find beauty, community and go forward? Bhargav, a first year medical student faces her fear of the anatomy lab, Sitka White Elephant thrift store volunteers reflect and Tessa Huls, a Pulitzer Prize–winning graphic artist and novelist, talks about rivers, rejecting fame and creating a geographically constrained life.

Featuring Bhargavi Pochi, Tessa Huls, Susan Brown, Carol Voisin and Mary Soltis and Celia Lubin.

An Artchange-Sitka Tells Tales Production.

Music: Celia Lubiin and IIamo, with Graham LeBron and Bryan Lovett.
