About this Event
Rewilding Through Writing
with Katherine Saul and Alli Marshall
Saturday, June 27 | 10am – 4pm
In this one-day workshop we will explore our connection to nature through creative writing and art making. By aligning with the natural world we’re able to experience calm, peace, and awareness of our own intuition. Principles of forest bathing, mindfulness, and creative play reveal deep wells of inspiration to be expressed through art and writing.
Led by Katherine Saul and Alli Marshall, this workshop is for writers and creatives of all backgrounds and levels of experience. While writing will be our main creative modality, no writing needs to be “good” — only self-expressive. Sharing is optional (though very much encouraged).
Bring a favorite pen and notebook if you have one — but writing and art materials will provided. The class will take place both indoors and outside.
Katherine Saul has been a middle school educator for 20 years and has been a certified Inward & Artward creative facilitator since 2024. She believes in writing as a means to build understanding of ourselves, each other, and the worlds we live in. When she's not building creative communities, you'll find her with her dogs in the water, on a trail, or in the garden.
Alli Marshall is a writer and artist based in Asheville. She received an MFA from Goddard College and is a certified Inward & Artward creative facilitator. She’s the author of ‘How to Talk to Rockstars,’ ‘The Persephone Project,’ and numerous zines. Many of her best friends are trees.
