FALL READING GROUP

Fall Reading group showing cover of Rob Hopkins' How to Fall in Love with the Future

Fall Reading Group starts next month!

How to Fall in Love with the Future: A Time Traveller’s Guide to Changing the World by Rob Hopkins is a deep dive into the people and movements throughout history who have used visions of the future to inspire positive change on a large and dramatic scale. Hopkins brings essential new thinking to anyone overwhelmed with dread and anxiety for the future. He asks us to consider: what would the world look like if we all got to work imagining—and then building—a world we were deeply in love with?

We will meet online and discuss these chapters and take our own trips into the future to imagine the world we hope for…so that we might make it real!

Check this out for more info and to request a digital copy of the book if you have financial or accessibility needs.
