Please join us for the first of LCF’s Art and Nature Entwined events. This event, led by Mary Hays, will start with nature focused poetry. Attendees are invited to share meaningful poems or short pieces of literature of their choosing with the group if desired. This will take place in the woods – please make sure to dress and prepare accordingly. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own foldable chairs. After wrapping up our spoken word portion of the event, we will embark on a short hike and have an opportunity to write down our experiences while enjoying the surrounding landscape. Notebooks and writing utensils will be provided to attendees.
