A field expedition exploring how evolutionary history shaped human intelligence. Walking through Nantucket's diverse landscapes, participants discover how millions of years of relationship with specific habitats encoded ecological wisdom into human perception. These walking journeys trace out the evolutionary lineage of life and humanity from the creation of the Earth to the present day.
Dr. Blundell will present his “Earthling Theory” and create an experience that reveals how our bodies and minds evolved to recognize patterns that connect us to Earth's creative processes, awakening latent forms of intelligence that remain available in each person.
This program is designed to be interesting for inquisitive adults. Pre-registration is required for this event. In the case of inclement weather, we will cancel and reschedule this program.
This program meets at 33 Washington Street and will head to an outbound location.

Cancellation and Refund Policy: We understand that plans change! Because we are a small non-profit that benefits from the contributions made by our generous patrons and supporters, cancellations make it more challenging for us to manage program enrollment. Tickets are non-refundable, should you choose to cancel. However, tickets are eligible for an exchange before the date and time of the scheduled program subject to a $5 rescheduling service fee, per reservation, and program availability. If you wish to reschedule, please contact us at info@mariamitchell.org.
In the event of a complete event or program cancellation by us ticket-holders will receive a ticket exchange or refund. Requests for exchanges or refunds must be made in writing, and received, no more than seven days from the date printed on the ticket. Rescheduling is not guaranteed and is based on current availability. No refund or credit will be given if the ticket holder requests a time that is unavailable for any reason.
All offerings are subject to cancellation by the MMA at any time, with or without notice for reasons deemed necessary by the organization.
