Keeping it All: What We Hold On To, and Why

Keeping it All: What We Hold On To,and Why We all become attached to possessions and for a variety of reasons. It may be because they are useful, we find them aesthetically interesting, they hold sentimental memories, or we are bound by the fear of letting go. Diane Thomson of Creative Organizing, LLC and Kris Britt, director of the documentary Packrat, will discuss the complex behaviors of gathering and holding onto the things in our lives, and the costs of too much stuff. They will help you find a way to make peace with it all. This presentation is offered in conjunction with our June art exhibit, Florence Weisz’s “Cautionary and Other Tales: The Blurry Line Between Collecting and Hoarding” . Thursday, June 5 7pm in Memorial Hall
