I will talk about several forces that shaped this land, from the ice age to the present day. We will find ourselves in the current moment through intimate observation of our surroundings and gentle movement.
There will be time to write and/or draw at several points throughout our time together. Please bring: a journal or sketchbook and something to write/draw with.
About me: I am a disabled nonbinary artist who has lived and worked in Brooklyn since 2016. I host free and donation-based events, including clothing swaps and weaving workshops. I walked the entire Brooklyn waterfront in 2022, and the Manhattan waterfront in 2023. I’ve spent hundreds of hours in Prospect Park. I love to stare at the lake.
Accessibility
We will travel one mile, stopping several times along the way. I am planning for the journey to be fully wheelchair accessible, with the knowledge that our path could be disrupted by forces outside our control. I will work with the group to navigate and adjust as needed. There will be benches and tables available at several points, and participants will be encouraged to move at their own pace.
Expect noise and activity around us. I do not plan to have amplified sound, but I’m open to it if requested.
Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any accessibility questions/requests.
Public transportation: The starting point is near several subway & bus lines at the Prospect Park BQS station.
