George Nakashima came to his creative work after a long spiritual journey to discover meaning for his life. Rather than focusing on his craft, this documentary delves deeply into his unique collection of esoteric experiences. It shows how they brought him to originate a new way to honor great trees and make creation a spiritual act. His great love for “imperfect” natural wood and his inspired works made him a seminal woodworker, widely admired and influential to this day. Presented by the Andersen Horticultural Library and the Friends of the Andersen Horticultural Library.
Join us for an enriching lecture with Mira Nakashima as she talks about her journey into the world of woodworking.

From architectural projects to furniture designs, Mira will lead us on a journey through her family's renowned studio, highlighting her own journey from Harvard graduate, to full-time assistant to her father until his passing in 1990, when she became the President and Creative Director. Presented by the Andersen Horticultural Library and the Friends of the Andersen Horticultural Library.
