GC|RH will host author Erika Howsare on Sunday, February 25, as part of its occasional Art of Creation series. Erika is a journalist and poet from Nelson County. Her new book is The Age of Deer: Trouble and Kinship With Our Wild Neighbors. She will talk on the subject of deer in world mythologies and legends. Some of the themes that those myths might raise are deer as guides and messengers, deer as psychopomps, and deer as essential providers who have been addressed with reverence and gratitude by the people who hunt and make use of them.
