Field School: Recording the Nature of Cape Cod

Description

'Outermost cliff and solitary dune, the plain of ocean and the far, bright brims of the world, meadow land and marsh and ancient moor;This is the outer Cape.' Henry Beston, The Outermost House

From Henry David Thoreau to Mary Oliver, Cape Cod's beautiful scenery has acted as a muse. Together, we will trace the steps of the artists and writers who have found inspiration in this constantly changing landscape. We will travel across the Outer Cape, visiting the special sites that led to the formation of important works of art and literature. Along the way, we will record our own experiences using a nature journal.

Please pack a brown bag lunch, snacks, and plenty of drinking water.

*Please note: the hours listed on the schedule may vary from the sample schedule in the field school brochure and are subject to change based on tides, staff, optimal wildlife sightings, and other variables. A detailed schedule will be prepared and sent to registrants at approximately 3-4 weeks in advance.

This course is one of several Cape Cod Field Schools offered. To learn more, visit www.massaudubon.org/capecodfieldschools.
