Beckoning the Mountain: Honoring Nature, Reflection, and the Creative Self. Join nature writer Katherine Hauswirth, author of The Book of Noticing: Collections and Connections on the Trail, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM at Northwest Park, in an exploration of stillness and observation in nature and how this can help build a sense of connection and creativity. She’ll share an award-winning piece from her book and offer tips for making the most of even brief forays into the natural world. Participants will part ways for a segment of the session to spend time alone in nature. There will be time at the end for reflecting on the experience and discussing how to take it further. Sponsored by the Friends of Northwest Park. Registration needed. $10.00 (Windsor residents), $15.00 (nonresidents), Free for FONWP members who are asked to call to verify registration. 860-285-1886.
