About this event

In a time of climate uncertainty, how do we process what’s happening — and where do our voices fit? Messages to the Earth is an interactive, creative workshop that invites you to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with nature, yourself, and others.

Part of a global participatory project, this session uses guided prompts and gentle activities to help you explore your feelings about the planetary emergency — from concern and grief to hope and imagination. You’ll be invited to write your own Letter or message to the Earth, expressing what you want to protect, change, or re-imagine for the future.

This is not about writing “perfectly,” but about giving space to emotion, creativity, and agency. You may choose to write a letter, poem or draw. All materials are provided — just bring curiosity, openness, and a willingness to reflect. Make sure to sign-up via the microsoft form!
