SUMMARY:Weeks State Park Migratory Bird Day Walk
DESCRIPTION:The Weeks State Park Migratory Bird Day Walk is Thursday\, May 16\, 2024. The walk starts at 7 am at the Parking Lot at the start of the Weeks State Park Summit Road\, just off of US Route 3 in Lancaster. We will then take a leisurely 3-mile round trip walk along the Auto Road to the summit of Mt Prospect\, gaining 800 feet of elevation. Along the way\, we should see various warblers\, vireos\, and flycatchers\, as well as a variety of spring wildflowers. \nWe typically finish at 11 am and then offer an optional side trip to Martin Meadow Pond\, where we will look for loons\, osprey\, and bald eagles. The birding walk is sponsored by the Weeks State Park Association and is free and open to the public. \nThe theme of World Migratory Bird Day 2024 is “Protect Insects\, Protect Birds.” Free educational posters featuring this theme will be available. \nThe Weeks State Park Association website. \nIf you have any questions\, contact the organizer David Govatski at David.Govatski@gmail.com. \n

SUMMARY:Human / Nature
DESCRIPTION:Elderglass by Jackie Hanson.\nIn this ongoing series\, artist Jackie Hanson uses pastels to paint immersive landscapes that feature both well-known and overlooked vantages\, often (but not exclusively) from New Hampshire and Maine. While pleasant to the eye\, these works help her to think about the tangled relationship between humans and nature. This relationship is both one of forces opposed to each other and inexplicably tied together. Humans can have a devastating impact on our environment\, but in many everyday cases\, you can observe the Earth reclaiming where humans have moved on. Meanwhile\, the human race is beholden to time and ultimately to our planet as well. Jackie’s paintings explore the beauty of the balance between human activity and the Earth’s reciprocity\, and the sublime power nature holds. (Recommended reading: Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer.) \nBio: Jackie Hanson spent her childhood in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire\, raised in a family where art and creativity were always encouraged. While growing up\, she became familiar with the beauty of the outdoors in New England: lakes\, mountains\, small farms\, and plenty of day trips to the ocean. After first using pastels in high school\, she rediscovered her love for them while in college\, and the way they made her feel the same excitement in the studio as when exploring the natural world. Jackie graduated from New England College’s Institute of Art and Design in 2022 with her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and plans to continue her art practice as a career.
