Visionary Walks: Experiencing Nature with Greater Awareness

In this outdoor workshop participants will take short hikes to see the woods through the eyes of two local visionaries:

Author and photographer of Blink to See, Pat Bernstein, is an expert on pareidolia, the search for hidden images in nature. This pursuit sharpens the senses, stimulates creativity, and enriches interactions with the natural world by heightening awareness and mindfulness.  

Chef Chris Amendola of Hampden’s Foraged Eatery actively forages for edibles which grow naturally in the woods of the Maryland Piedmont. He incorporates these local ingredients into the hyper-seasonal cuisine which is the trademark of his exciting new café.

Walk with these inspirational artists and learn to take a much closer look, truly appreciating all that nature has to offer!

This program is in partnership with The American Visionary Art Museum, and The Baltimore County Commission on Arts and Sciences.

Saturday, June 19 -- 10 a.m.-12 p.m.
