Thursday, May 28, 2026 at 5:30pm<\/b><\/p>\n

Join us for the final workshop of the Writing About Place<\/i> series\u2014a four-week writing workshop exploring how landscape, memory, and ecology shape story and voice.<\/p>\n

This session features guest writer Miles Justice Hardingwood, a poet and creative from Brooklyn, NY. He is a 2023 National Student Poet and a 2022 NYC Youth Poet Laureate Ambassador. His work has received a Scholastic National Gold Medal and an American Voices Medal, and he has performed at venues including The White House, The Schomburg Center, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Nuyorican Poets Cafe, as well as at Vice President Kamala Harris\u2019s Black History Month Celebration. He attended the Kenyon Young Writers Workshop and the Iowa Young Writers\u2019 Studio, and is currently a student at Brown University, where he is pursuing a concentration in Literary Arts.<\/p>\n

This workshop will include writer reflections, discussion, and writing exploration centered on place, lived experience, and relationship to place. Participants will be invited to engage through listening, reflection, and optional writing exercises in a supportive setting. By deepening how we notice, describe, and connect with the landscapes around us, writing can also strengthen our understanding of why conservation and stewardship matter to our communities.<\/p>\n
