Enter the Garden of Silence: From Seeing to Writing

October 10 @ 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm

| $10
Gardens at Tidewater

Georgia O’Keefe once said, “Nobody sees a flower, really—it is so small—we haven’t time, and to see takes time.”

Using this quote as a jumping off point, this writing workshop aims to help you appreciate the beauty in the ordinary and the simplicity in the extraordinary. The art of seeing deeply requires attention, curiosity, openness, and connection. Taking the time to “see” will help restore you to wonder. We welcome all levels of writers.

The workshop will be held outdoors at the UMaine Gardens at Tidewater Farm in Falmouth and will include a writing prompt, time to experience a moment in the gardens, time to write, and sharing of our experiences.

Please bring a notebook or sketchbook and a pen that you really love to write with!

Registration is required and space is limited.
