We look forward to Art Walk 2025 and hope to see everyone back next year!


“Have you ever found yourself down a dirt path thinking, gosh, someone must write a poem or song about this place?

Walking with Woodsworth is a soft and solitary moment where poetry, birdsong and the beauty of nature have a moment together; a moment I’m so grateful to have been a witness to.” ~Lauren Brumbach (Photo of Lauren by Juliana at Eye Crafted Shop.)
