Kevin Fedarko, author and Colorado River adventurer, will kick off the 2019-20 monthly educational meetings of the Sedona Muses of the Museum of Northern Arizona on Wednesday, Sept. 4 at 3:30 p.m. at the Mary D. Fisher Theater.
The event features a meet-and-greet with Fedarko followed by a one-hour presentation about his National Geographic-sponsored 750+ mile trek through the Grand Canyon, completed in 2016 with photographer Peter McBride.
Fedarko is the author of “The Emerald Mile”, which documents the fastest Colorado River trip through the Grand Canyon ever recorded — made in a small wooden dory named “The Emerald Mile.”
The Sedona Muses, an auxiliary group of the Museum of Northern Arizona, offers educational opportunities to the Sedona and Verde Valley area through tours, lectures, films and presentations on the anthropology/archaeology, geology/paleontology, biology/ecology, and arts and culture of the Colorado Plateau.
