To ANSWER THE CALL OF SPIRIT is to follow one's passion by activating qualities such as courage, energy, determination, wisdom, and love.

These journeys have provided her with amazing experiences that have influenced her life within and outside of music from physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual points of view.

The Gail Appel Lecture Series in Literature and Fine Arts was established in 2002 to highlight literature and the fine arts on campus and expose USask students, faculty and the broader community to some of the world’s most distinguished and influential artists. This lecture series is made possible thanks to a generous donation by Gail Appel (BA’66) and her husband, Mark.

Previous speakers have included Buffy Sainte Marie, Alan Lightman, Sir Ken Robinson, Jim Cuddy, Tanya Tagaq and Adam Beach.
