What can our bodies teach us about the endurance, strength, groundedness, compassion and creativity required to practice justice? How can yoga be a practice of liberation?

It’s not every board meeting that you get to meet a tamandua! 😍

This curious critter made an appearance at the RWPC Board Meeting this morning at the @rwpzoo Education Center. Huge thank you to Amy Roberts, Andrea Stein, Anthony Polite, and Kim Warren from the Zoo team for letting us meet Oblio and sharing so many interesting facts about the tamandua (a type of anteater!). Oblio brought many professional insights to the meeting, too 🐜

Visit the Zoo to learn more about tamanduas and other amazing animals!

Winter walks πŸ‚> January blues πŸ₯Ά Take a walk with us at Roger Williams Park! We visited the trail along Elm Lake near the softball field – a short, easy trail with stunning frosty lake views (especially during golden hour) and woodsy path. Shout-out to @pvdparks for maintaining the many beautiful trails at the Park! 

Before hitting the trail, please note that the only way to access this path is via the Park Avenue entrance while Maple Avenue and Pine Hill Avenue are currently closed. Find parking along Frederick C. Green Memorial Blvd. right when you turn into the park!
Join @rwpmuseum for a Winter Bird Walk Saturday morning at 10 AM! See wintering waterfowl and many more feathered friends during this guided walk. Tickets are $3 (register online). πŸ¦†

Can’t make it tomorrow? Winter Bird Walks also take place February 14 and March 14!
