UBC Celebrates Earth Day with Suzanne Simard

Wed Apr 22 2026 at 7:30PM at Chan Shun Concert Hall Celebrate Earth Day with leading voices in ecology, Indigenous stewardship, law, literature, and music, including author and UBC Faculty of Forestry and Environmental Stewardship Professor Suzanne Simard, as she launches her newest book, When the Forest Breathes, the highly anticipated follow-up to her bestselling book, Finding the Mother Tree. Featuring an immersive evening of performance alongside a panel conversation exploring the future of forests and our shared responsibility to the living world, this event asks a vital question: how do we reimagine our relationship with forests—and with one another—in a time of ecological urgency?
