Solstice River Writing Workshop

Did you know we’re hosting a Winter Solstice River Writing Workshop on Dec 21st?⁠

⁠

Our Creativity for Conservation Be Well Workshops have become a grounding commitment for us ever since our rollercoaster journey with the Dam(n) battle. ⁠

⁠

And on this Winter Solstice, you’re invited to snag one of our last few spots to join @riverwritingcollective ⁠facilitator, activist, poet and writer Amy May along with a special evening fireside chat with a dear brother to this land @shoshoneelder⁠

⁠

Since the beginning of our community and restoration journey, the written word has played an important role in helping us process and express what we witness and learn while tending to this inspiring landscape. ⁠

⁠

Nature, and certainly water, have a power to unlock our childlike observation and enrich our connection to all around us. If explored and expressed, this connection is a powerful tool to move, inspire, and unlock our potential to celebrate and preserve the ecosystems we depend on. ⁠

⁠

In our Solstice writing workshop, we aim to explore the relationship between observation, expression, and action for the New Year ahead! ⁠

⁠

Whether you consider yourself a writer, a poet, an artist, or simply a nature lover who wants to safely cultivate a relationship to writing, humans of all skills, experiences, and perspectives are welcome. ⁠

⁠

River Writing is a community-based writing practice & courage class. We keep our pens moving on the page as we write together with abandon. We invite words to flow unobstructed from a river of inner-narrative & we share without preface or apology. No caveats. No comments. We listen to each other without offering praise or criticism.⁠

⁠

Grab your pen, swimsuit, & thoughts and consider being part of our first writing community. With options to join for the day or a few nights, we intend to eat well, think creatively, write a lot, and soak even more. ⁠

⁠

See you there!
