Embark on a journey into the unknown . . . in your own neighborhood! In this Zoom workshop, filmmaker and gardener Lauren Iverson will discuss ways to approach your routine stroll with fresh eyes. Come prepared with your walking shoes and the tools of your choice—a sketchbook, a camera, a flower press, or perhaps a pocket for storing leaves—that will help you record your experience. With the wind at our backs, we’ll virtually convene to create memory “maps” of our time spent outdoors and swap stories about all of the sights, sounds, and smells that stuck with us.

This workshop is presented in conjunction with San Francisco Cinematheque's program “traveling thru with eyes closed tight,” curated by Alix Blevins. The program can be viewed at sfcinematheque.org from November 19 through December 18, 2020.
