Celebrate National Poetry Month with a morning of expressive writing in nature. Explore the Rockefeller Park Greenhouse & Botanical Garden and respond to prompts and poems exploring our relationship to the natural world and to one another. Participants will have time to discuss the prompts as a group, explore the grounds, write, and share. No prior writing experience is required.
This program is presented in partnership with The Jack, Joseph, and Morton Mandel Humanities Center.
