What does it mean to notice and be present in one’s surroundings? Through this guided walk we’ll visit historical locations in Sandwich Towne and write in response to given prompts. We’ll focus on the senses, the concrete and particular, and connect internal reflective states with the stimuli of external environments. Participants will have the opportunity to share their noticing with the group and receive/provide feedback to other writers.
