These special Yoga sessions will focus on gently and lovingly balancing our minds, bodies, & breath. We will explore gentle movement through physical poses, slow flow Vinyasa, stretches, breathing exercises, active rest and guided meditations. This class intends to be an accessible, inclusive, and welcoming space for all bodies and all people wanting to explore different parts of a yoga practice while embracing our connection with the natural world. All of these sessions are weather permitting & held outside in the park so please dress in a way that is comfortable for you and appropriate for the weather of the day.
You are welcome to bring a mat and/or any props (examples- beach towels, books, blocks, blankets, extra layers of clothing, etc.) that best support you.
These sessions are for all people 16 and older. See you in the park!

We're so excited to welcome Julie Gearan back for another Slow Looking in Color and Line workshop at Roger Williams Park! This time, we're gathering at the Rose Garden (near the Elmwood Ave. entrance, and across the street from the Betsey Williams Cottage) on Sunday, October 18, 12-2 PM.

Just bring yourself, your creative spirit, and a chair (if you'd like) to this free drawing workshop. All experience levels welcome, and supplies are provided!

Thank you to @risca1967 for helping make this event possible!
Whether you're a mom, or appreciate a mom in your life, we want to see you at a film screening of No Country for Mothers on October 22 at 6 PM!

Roger Williams Park Conservancy is hosting a screening of this impactful documentary created by @momsfirstus about what motherhood looks like in America today, at the @rwpbotanicalcenter. 

Joining us for the screening and a Q&A panel after the film are representatives from local organizations @collectiveactionri, @rikidscount, and @unitedwayri. This open dialogue and opportunity for resource-sharing is designed to embody the film's premise: that motherhood in America is not a private struggle but a collective one. 

This event is free and open to the public! Learn more and RSVP online (link in bio): https://www.rwpconservancy.org/event/film-screening-of-no-country-for-mothers/
