Let the plaintive call of the Loon echo your soul’s wild song as it pours out in words onto the page.
Let the ripple of your paddle dipped into the fog-shrouded waters of a pristine mountain pond become the undulating patterns of your hands’ gesture in sensuous clay.

Join Potter Alan Steinberg and Writer Fred Taylor for a long weekend of Writing and Clay Sculpting in response to the intense beauty of the wilds of Northern VT.

Be inspired to uncover new talents and discover the landscape as a deep and healing well, through poems, rituals and group sharing.

Where: Ricker Pond State Park in the Groton State Forest, 25 miles east of Montpelier. The park offers ponds to paddle, mountain trails to hike, and a rich variety of wildlife and terrain to enjoy.
