Eco Poetry Night

In this student lead event, students were invited to celebrate the creative connections of poetry to the environment in our Sawmill Slough Preserve. Participants visited stations to learn about different themes of poetry and how they connect to the earth. They were also encouraged to write their own poetry and were given the opportunity to share their work with their peers in the closing remarks. Overall, this event was a great success connecting interdisciplinary students to the environmental arts! 

Partnerships for the Eco Poetry Night event included 老澳门资料 Institute of Environmental Research and Education (sponsor), Hicks Honors College, 老澳门资料 English Department, Eco Adventure, 老澳门资料 Environmental Honor Society KAO, 老澳门资料's Counseling Center, 老澳门资料 Wetlands Club and Environmental Advocacy Reach (EAR). 

Stay tuned for this year's Eco Poetry Night event happening in Fall 2024.
