What do the waters around us teach us when we listen to them? How might rivers & rain, glaciers & groundwater, be the teachers we need in this moment? This writing workshop invites participants to pay attention to the watersheds where they live & to connect the local flows of life-giving water with a love & care for the planet that keeps us grounded.
