About this event

Urban forests provide urban dwellers access to nature and the more-than-human world. Engaging with the stories within these forests through listening fosters belonging and supports environmental access for all.

Lotte will facilitate a series of listening prompts to attune to the more-than-human world, leading and guiding the composing and sharing of a collaborative and interconnected story.
