SUMMARY:Forest Bathing Retreat: CommuniTEA Amongst the Trees
DESCRIPTION:ON-SITE | Saturday\, August 3\,  10 am – 1 pm\n \nDid you know a lack of connection can increase the risk for premature death to levels comparable to smoking 15 cigarettes a day? Loneliness is an epidemic according to a recent report by the U.S. Surgeon General. However\, we have a wondrous and simple solution: nature connection! If you’re in search of community and/or you really like tea and the great outdoors\, join us for this immersive morning retreat focused on fostering kinship with like-minded people and the more-than-human world. \nYour guide\, Kelly Bruce\, will lead you on a relational journey through the bountiful summer forest\, weaving mindfulness\, breathwork\, forest bathing and nature therapy together for a restorative morning on some of the trails less traveled at the North Carolina Arboretum. We’ll celebrate the experience in community\, enjoying a special wild-foraged tea ceremony and snacks. Bring an open mind and an open heart. All are welcome. Presented through Adult & Continuing Education Programs in collaboration with Asheville Wellness Tours. \nRegister for this class here! \nLearn more about our class offerings here: https://www.ncarboretum.org/education-programs/adult-education-classes/

SUMMARY:Working with Shadow: Crafting Cyanotypes
DESCRIPTION:ON-SITE | Saturday\, August 3\, 10 am – 4 pm\n \nParticipants of this workshop will be introduced to the cyanotype process and create cameraless photographs of objects\, plants\, and other materials found on-site at the Arboretum. We’ll explore the preparation of cyanotype chemistry\, various paper coating techniques\, and proper exposure using both natural and artificial light sources. All the skills in this class can be translated to the home studio with minimal compromise. This workshop is geared for participants with little-to-no experience with the cyanotype process\, but even a seasoned practitioner should find value in this unique approach to the medium. \nRegister for this class here! \nLearn more about our class offerings here: https://www.ncarboretum.org/education-programs/adult-education-classes/

SUMMARY:Geology of the Blue Ridge - In-person Version
DESCRIPTION:ON-SITE | Four Sessions: Wednesdays\, August 7 – 28\, 9:30 am – 12:30 pm\n \nExplore the geologic history of the Southern Appalachian Mountains in this blended class that includes lecture presentations\, discussions\, guided and self-guided explorations in the field. The course begins with a discussion of the earth’s interior and plate tectonics\, progresses to a model for the formation of the southern Appalachians and then describes the surficial processes that generate the current mountain topography. Discussion will also include an overview of geologic processes that affect these mountains today: earthquakes\, mass movements\, and floods. \nRegister for this class here! \nLearn more about our class offerings here: https://www.ncarboretum.org/education-programs/adult-education-classes/
