Featuring: Rupert Isaacson, author of The Horse Boy
Join us to meet and be inspired by Rupert's amazing account of how horses have influenced not only his own life but his autistic son. He will share his dramatic and heart warming story of his autistic son, Rowan, the gift of horses, the power of faith, and the magic of possibility.
Rupert has lived an amazingly varied life as a world traveler, horse trainer, journalist and father. He is the founding director of the Indigenous Land Rights Fund, a non-profit organization helping threatened and displaced indigenous tribes obtain tenure of their ancestral land.
