BENTONVILLE, Ark. — Two lectures featuring prominent guests will be held at Crystal Bridges.

The first of the lectures is "An Evening with Jane Fonda and Mary Steenburgen."

The event will feature a conversation between Academy Award-winning actor, author, and activist Jane Fonda and songwriter, Golden Globe and Academy Award-winning actor Mary Steenburgen.

The conversation will be moderated by Olivia Walton, the Crystal Bridges board chairperson, and discuss wellbeing for women, the two actors' personal wellness journeys, climate work, and advocacy for well-being.

The event will take place at Crystal Bridges on Tuesday, Nov. 12, at 6 p.m. This event has been sold out but a live stream will be available here.

The second lecture will feature Jonathan Haidt, author of "The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness."

Haidt, a social psychologist at New York University's Stern School of Business, boasts research that "examines the intuitive foundations of morality and how morality varies across cultures."

A release from Crystal Bridges said Haidt's goal is to "help people understand each other, live and work near each other, and even learn from each other despite their moral differences."

This lecture will discuss the intersection of social media and the decline of teen mental health and what can be done to reverse harmful trends.

The lecture will take place at Crystal Bridges on Thursday, Dec. 5, at 6 p.m.
