Awaken Your Senses: Write Outside Our Door
Program Category
Miscellaneous
Audience Age
Get your nature fix, practice mindfulness, shuffle off stress, and be creative! These extended nature walks feature writing prompts that are tailored to your location, allowing us to "discover" the site with fresh eyes and ears. We will begin with a few exercises to get our creative juices flowing. Then we'll head outside and explore the property. Along the way, we will use all of our senses to increase our awareness and to relieve daily stresses at the same time. Folks are guaranteed to see, hear, and touch something brand-new and intriguing this time, even if they're familiar with the place. And they'll come away with partial or finished pieces of writing or artwork, too. Participants are invited to bring their own journals or sketchbooks, although small ones will be provided.
