A Beginning Dialogue: Understanding  Spiritual Connection with the Earth from a Ute Perspective
Saturday, June 12, 9am - 4pm
$95, $75 members
Join us at Toklat for a day of spiritual insight and discussion with Northern Ute elder Loya Arrum, and her daughter, Kerry Cesspooch, whose ancestors considered this valley home before they were displaced by European settlers.
The Nature of Our Lives: A Writing Workshop
Saturday, June 26, 9am - 5pm
$95, $75 members
When was the last time you stared up at the night sky and gasped at its vastness? What is your earliest memory of a certain tree, a safe-haven rock, a singing bird? Did you grow up feeling embraced by nature, or discover its wonderment at a later age? Join writer Karen Chamberlain to examine these questions and others during idea-filled readings, in-depth discussions, explorative writing time and non-strenuous hikes.

 It is finally summer in Aspen, and time to start gardening! Join ACES and Aspen T.R.E.E.'s Eden Vardy for a day in the Hallam Lake garden. We'll talk about high-altitude plants, gardening techniques, soil amendments, and get our hands dirty. Bring water and lunch, and work side by side with Hallam Lake staff to reinvigorate the garden for the summer.
