Salmon Nation’s Festival of What Works is a week-long, online celebration of community-led approaches to living well in place. The twin challenges of climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic have accelerated the re-localization of economic and cultural life. Join us as leaders in community share practical, replicable ideas from individuals or organizations that are contributing to community health in myriad ways: education, economic development, social activism, health, healing, food production, median making, the arts and environmentalism. Panelists include: Wade Davis, Portugal.The Man, Chief Na’moks, Annita McPhee, Ryan McMahon, Harold R. Johnson, Gerry Oleman, Eden Robinson, Gisele Martin, Don Svanvik and Napaġiak Dalee Sambo Dorough, to name a but few. FREE to attend.

I interviewed my dad on video in his final weeks. When I asked about his work and finding meaning through helping others, he responded, “I don’t think you can be focused on, ‘Oh gee, I want to make a difference.’ It has to be spontaneous. If it’s not…there’s some kind of egotistical thing going on. That’s a red flag. You hope you impact people on the deepest level you are capable of at the time. Sometimes you hit it, sometimes you don’t. You’re trying.
