Event Details
Writing About Place is a collaborative community series featuring four writing workshops and two guided hikes focused on observing, experiencing, and writing about the landscapes around us. This series is presented in partnership by the Charlestown Land Trust, Hopkinton Land Trust, Wood-Pawcatuck Watershed Association, Cross Mills Library, and Earthinform Studio.
Join us for a guided hike as part of series, connecting landscape, poetry, and close observation on conserved land. By deepening how we notice, describe, and connect with the landscapes around us, writing can also strengthen our understanding of why conservation and stewardship matter to our communities.
Hosted by the Charlestown Land Trust, this program includes stops at two Poetry of the Wild poetry box installations along the trail at Mill Pond Preserve, featuring poetry by Susan Killingbeck. Participants will also be invited to pause and write along the way.
All are welcome. Participants are asked to preregister here.
Rain date: Sunday, May 24th.
The Charlestown Land Trust protects nearly 700 acres of ecological, historic, scenic, agricultural, and educational significance in Charlestown.
