This year, Consider This explores all things public. Who are the people, and what is the public? When we talk about public opinion or public service, whose opinions are we including, and who is being served? Does public ownership of land mean that land should be equally accessible to everyone? What are the dividing lines between public and private life?
Join us for onstage conversations in Portland, Hood River, La Grande, and elsewhere to dig into questions like these with people working in public engagement, public education, land management, media, government, and more.
