Cycles and Waves

Big Marsh Park

July 15, 2023 – 5-7pm

Norman W. Long and Sara Zalek

Norman W. Long and Sara Zalek lead an interactive walk using mindfulness body exercises, elements of performed sound and electronics, and listening stations for collective reflection. We renew our presence at the marsh while exploring new territories together. How do these changes affect what and how we hear? 

Participants will meet at the shade structure on the front lawn, which is visible from the main parking lot at Big Marsh Park. RSVP here!
