SUMMARY:The Garden in Winter: A Creative Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Spend some time during the quiet of the new year exploring the garden in winter. \nDuring this workshop\, we’ll make quick forays from Stoneleigh’s heated Pool House into the gardens\, noting the barebones beauty of trees in winter while scouting for birds\, squirrels\, foxes—and even their tracks if we have a bit of snow. Then we’ll return to the warmth of the Pool House to write\, taking inspiration from the surrounding views\, which include bog gardens flanked by arborvitae\, white pine\, and hemlock. \nJoin us to banish the cold and dark days of January with reading\, writing\, and Stoneleigh’s inspiration. \nPlease note: the inclement weather date for this event is Friday\, January 16\, 10:00 – 11:30 AM. \nAbout the instructor: Catherine Staples teaches creative writing in the English and honors programs at Villanova University. Her latest book of poetry\, VERT (Mercer University Press\, 2024)\, is available at Main Point Books in Wayne.

SUMMARY:Outdoors Online: The Art of Birds in Flight
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual event. \nFrom the dawn of art to the here and now\, birds have captured the imagination of artists. The mystery and magic of birds on the wing\, gathered in groups\, or on their own\, have inspired new ways of seeing and appreciating the natural world. \nJoin our artful conversation to explore all the colors of the rainbow evident in vibrant displays and acrobatic flights of fancy. We will contemplate an array of avian antics that populate paintings by artists as different as Audubon\, Elizabeth Gould\, and Uttech. Stories abound filled with symbolism\, a sense of hope and freedom\, and concern about change. Our participatory discussion includes historical to contemporary images\, a diversity of artists\, and enlightening videos. \nLynn Berkowitz\, MFA\, BFA\, with a career in art museums and online learning\, has developed an array of award-winning gallery tours\, experiences\, and apps aimed at helping audiences of all ages and abilities engage with a diversity of art ‘isms and approaches. \nStudents will learn: \n\nA diversity of artists whose paintings feature all manners of birds in flight. \nKey works of art that exemplify the theme from a variety of art ‘isms and styles. \nAn introduction featuring historical to contemporary artists\, both well-known and\, to some\, new discoveries. \nActive looking strategies designed to increase engagement. \nArt appreciation considerations that enhance cultural enjoyment.
