Join Amber Blaeser-Wadzala for an environmental, collaborative workshop fo all ages! You'll go for a walk along Write On's trails, stopping occassionally to observe the world for extended periods of time and to write down your observations. Through various prompts and by looking at both the broader landscape and a single object to study and describe, participants will create a collaborative poem.

This session is free but registration is required as space is limited.
