Get Back into Nature

Nature is all around us. Yet, we are slowly losing our connection with it. In a world where attention is fast eroding, and listening to the environment is more crucial than ever, what can writers do to rebel? Through this course, we will learn to look around us and notice the ways in which our love for nature is both personal and universal. How can we create art that inspires others to embrace that love too? How can we write about the grief of losing something important, and the slow beauty that surrounds us? This course will encourage attendees to look at nature writing through an interdisciplinary lens, both wide in its scope and deep in its engagement.
