So much inspiration lies in nature, and all we have to do is stop, look and listen…we’ll spend four evenings doing just that. As we walk amidst the towering trees of our local forests, through carefully maintained parks and under the weeping willows at Jericho beach, we’ll stop to take creative stock and listen, really listen, with our imagination to the stories the trees have to tell of everything they’ve borne witness to. As the group ventures out, under the expert guidance of Christianne, each student will produce one piece of writing per evening to accompany a sketch or photograph of its natural subject. At the end of the week, we’ll have enough material to comprise a curated collection of work that we’ll coil bind and top with a stunning handmade cover. 

For those who seek refuge from the busyness of everyday life, take this camp as your opportunity  to stop and smell the roses, both literally and figuratively.
