This is part of the Inspired by the Land. A California State Parks Week offering to explore Art at Bothe-Napa Valley State Park.
Join Dr. Rhea for a guided creative walk along Redwood Trail exploring the theme of Mutualism — the reciprocal relationships that keep ecosystems healthy and connected. Through gentle movement, observation, writing, and art prompts inspired by the surrounding forest, participants will be invited to creatively respond to elements of the landscape such as towering redwoods, flowing creek water, and moss-covered rocks. The guided experience ends in a peaceful creekside grove where Dr. Rhea will host community art making inspired by the walk, along with optional poetry readings where participants are invited to share writings created during the experience. Art supplies will be provided.
Visitors may also experience the walk at their own pace through a self-guided version along the first quarter mile of Redwood Trail. Five interpretive stations guide participants through simple, accessible creative prompts designed to deepen connection with the forest through movement, reflection, drawing, and writing. Suggested Supplies for self-guided experience: A pen or pencil, a journal with open space for drawing and writing, and art supplies such as Cray-Pas.
