Events    » Booking info.

All events take place in the Hagan Foundation Center for the Humanities (Learning Resources Center, Bldg. 16, Second Floor) unless otherwise noted.

Thursday May 16, 2013 - Documentary – “Reveal the Path” - 11:30am

Please join us for this visually stunning, virtual, global village field trip.

In keeping with the Hagan Foundation Center for the Humanities theme for the year, The Global Village, we are happy to present a film, co-sponsored by SANE, that explores international travel, adventure and best of all, cycling!

"Reveal the Path" is a genre-defying adventure film that contemplates what it means to live an inspired life using the bicycle as a mechanism to explore, dream and discover.

Regions explored include Scotland’s lush valleys, Europe’s snowcapped mountains, Morocco’s high desert landscapes, Nepal’s rural countryside and Alaska’s rugged coastal beaches. Ride along and get lost in the wonders of the world… Meet the locals living modest yet seemingly fulfilling lives, leading us to question what it means to live an inspired life – however humble or extravagant. Filmed across four continents, this immersive film is sure to ignite the dream in you.

Join in as the creators of Ride the Divide take you on an adventure that will leave you with an eager desire to chart your own course to faraway lands or simply to discover with eyes wide open what’s right around the bend.
