Join Us for A Conversation with Jon McCormack on February 11 at 11am EST

We are thrilled to invite you to the next session of the Vital Impacts Online Lecture Series—A Global Search for Wonder: Nature’s Art and Our State of Mind—featuring the incredible Jon McCormack on Wednesday, February 11 at 11:00 AM EST.

Jon McCormack explores the artistry of the natural world, from intimate details to vast landscapes. His decade-long project photographing nature across all seven continents reveals patterns and textures often overlooked, inviting viewers to slow down, pay closer attention, and experience a sense of wonder. His work blurs the line between documentation and abstraction, fostering a deeper connection to the living world.

By pairing beauty with vulnerability, Jon reflects on nature as a dynamic, interconnected system and on our shared responsibility to care for it. Drawing on research in psychology, he shows how awe—sparked by close observation—can expand empathy, humility, and connection, making it a vital resource in today’s fragmented world.
