Educational Retreats and Ecological Offerings
Join Fernland’s Spring Writing Circle🌱
Thank you for joining our writing circles with people of the global majority working at the intersections of art, education, environmental and racial justice. Having this space with one another allows us to propel our stories forward and nurture how powerful storytelling is when born in community.
If you joined us this winter, let us know how the season flowed for you and/or how you would like to come together in the spring. If you're not able to join in the spring, it's still so helpful to get a sense of how this winter went for you. If you're joining for the first time this spring, welcome!
Email howdy@fernlandstudios.org if you have questions. With gratitude~
