Listening to the Land – Pilgrimage for Nature

2022-01-25 19:00

Online

Organizer and creator of the walk Jolie Booth will share how Listening to the Land – Pilgrimage for Nature attempted to listen to the land and generate creative responses from doing so, but how it also changed her relationship with nature. She’s interested to know what you think it might mean to listen to the land and why such an activity might be of value to the future of our planet.
