Dillon Lecture Series: Céline Cousteau

Through the power of storytelling Céline Cousteau uses her amazing voyages around the world to offer a thoughtful perspective on the connection of the environment, indigenous peoples, & populations around the world and how this knowledge is vital to the future of each of us on the planet.

From the isolated corners of the planet, to bustling cities and everywhere in-between, Céline shares the stories of the places and people she’s met on her vast explorations in hopes of fostering cross-cultural communication and in the effort to connect our collective experience as one human tribe. With deep compassion and an authentic voice, Céline’s perspective transcends the barriers of time and space and unifies the many people of our planet to address the most pressing issues we face today. And always with the message of hope through action.

Since 1982, the Dillon Lecture Series has provided distinguished and notable speakers that many in Hutchinson, Kansas and surrounding communities might not have the opportunity to experience.  From poets, politicians and space scientists to American heroes, each is chosen by the Dillon Lecture Committee by following the teachings of Chinese philosopher Kuan-Tzam - “learning is the key to enlightenment”,  to educate and inspire audiences across a wide age span.

TICKETS: General admission tickets are $10. Students and school groups are admitted free of charge with a school ID. Tickets are available online (www.hutchcc.edu/dls) or at the Arena on the day of the lecture.  (Please note: Online tickets will not be available for purchase within 7 days of lecture)
