You’ll want to hear what the author of books including Ten Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right Now, Who Owns the Future?, You Are Not A Gadget, and Dawn of the New Everything: Encounters with Reality and Virtual Reality, has to say about the ways digital life can help—and hurt—society.”

Book Club: Barbara Kingsolver’s “Unsheltered”
5 – 6 PM @ Dolly’s Bookstore

This book club is free and open to all who wish to attend – the only requirement is to have read the book! Even better, if you mention that you are planning to join in the discussion, you get 10% off if you purchase the title they’re talking about.

From the Dolly’s website, describing this month’s book, “Unsheltered”:
“How could two hardworking people do everything right in life, a woman asks, and end up destitute? Willa Knox and her husband followed all the rules as responsible parents and professionals, and have nothing to show for it but debts and an inherited brick house that is falling apart. The magazine where Willa worked has folded; the college where her husband had tenure has closed. Their dubious shelter is also the only option for a disabled father-in-law and an exasperating, free-spirited daughter. When the family’s one success story, an Ivy-educated son, is uprooted by tragedy he seems likely to join them, with dark complications of his own…

Unsheltered is the compulsively readable story of two families, in two centuries, who live at the corner of Sixth and Plum in Vineland, New Jersey, navigating what seems to be the end of the world as they know it. With history as their tantalizing canvas, these characters paint a startlingly relevant portrait of life in precarious times when the foundations of the past have failed to prepare us for the future.”

A Brief History & Explanation of Milling and Refining in Park City 
5 PM @ Park City Museum Education & Collections Center 

The public is invited to attend “Shiny Rock to Silver Bars: A Brief History and Explanation of Milling and Refining in Park City” lecture by mining engineer Donovan Symonds. How were the ores mined in Park City turned into silver, lead or gold bars? Why were they crushed and concentrated?

Practical demonstrations and videos will explain the processes involved in sorting the ores into concentrates and tailings. Donovan, a long-time resident of Park City, is a retired consulting mining engineer. He has enjoyed being a museum docent for about 8 years.

Park City Film Presents: “bias”
7 PM @ Jim Santy Auditorium

“If you’re human – you’re biased. Now what?”

From the Park City Film website:
“bias” challenges us to confront our hidden biases and understand what we risk when we follow our gut. Through exposing her own biases, award-winning documentary filmmaker Robin Hauser (CODE: Debugging the Gender Gap, Running for Jim) highlights the nature of implicit bias, the grip it holds on our social and professional lives, and what it will take to induce change.”

This free screening also has a post-film panel with:
– Director Robin Hauser
– Dr. Marco Barker, Associate Vice President for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and Chief Diversity Officer at Westminster College
– Sadie Ortiz, PCHS Senior and member of Teen Council, Latinos in Action and Bright Futures
– Meghan Zarnetske, instructional coach and social justice teacher at Treasure Mountain Junior High, will moderate.

This screening is part Park City Film’s Reel Community Series, the nonprofit’s longest-running community program, which introduces films to expand viewers’ views of the world – and connects them to other members of the Park City community. “bias” is underwritten by the Women’s Giving Fund (a project of the Park City Community Foundation).
