The decolonization journey continues in this retreat. We will engage in writing and art making in the new outdoor screened in classroom at the Studio. We will share healthy meals together that we learn to cook together. We will write prompted by readings from Zelda's forthcoming book Recollect and other Black women artists, and create new practices for being guided by our ancestors. You will reconnect with everything from how to tell the truth of your stories and the stories of your ancestors to how to live well supported by the nature that is inside and outside of you.

Many of us don’t do things like go on Safari, or a hike, or sleep under the stars because we are so vulnerable in society. In this workshop we’ll remember what it’s like to be a member of a female band of warriors, well the kind that use an ink pen as a spear – giggle. Zelda will facilitate your wilderness experience, some journal prompts, and a gentle nature hike along the river where you will walk in silent meditation and remember and pause and write. $250 Covers Workshop, Facilities, Food (except breakfast). A pre-camping info session and tent pupping demo will take place at Her Story Garden Studios on Saturday September 23rd at 2pm.
