Brandberg, Namibia’s highest mountain, conceals one of the greatest collection of rock paintings on earth, 4000-year-old paintings depict a lost world of giraffes and elephants, snakes and springbok, bow hunters and community celebrations. On assignment for National Geographic in 2015, writer Mark Jenkins climbed Brandberg in 120 degree heat to explore this alfresco art museum and reflect on the challenges of water scarcity then and now. Jenkins has covered the globe for National Geographic Magazine, Outside Magazine, Atlantic, Backpacker, and more. Coffee, tea, and cookies will be available at 6:30pm for a small reception.
