2022

Last summer Wishwood had
a delightful first season. We partnered with
The Fieldtrip Society who offered a series
of al fresco workshops for curious grownups;
free-form painting, sashiko mending, konnyaku paper,
phytogram prints from plants, jewelry redux, ice dyeing,
suminagashi floating ink, and cake stenciling.
Inviting beautiful mistakes and surprises,
everyone learned something new.
We ended our summer with a debut of short stories,
movies, and a celebration under the stars.

Folded Zine No.2, 2023
We are thrilled with the wonderful world
created here by so many talented artists,
musicians, filmmakers, teachers and visitors.

The first annual
Arbor Day Celebration
began with a reading from Side By Side ( 2012 edition )
by Gilbert and George, the sculptors,
followed by movies by Christine Alicino, Dagie Brundert,
Bette Burgoyne, Caryn Cline, Carole Kim,
Kate Lain, Lisa Liedgren, Tim Knowles,
and Ursula Brookbank.

Field Trip
In June we travelled to see the giant Sequoia trees.
Some roads were closed due to this year’s extreme
snow and melt. There were majestic trees
next to those felled by fire and disease.
We collected ancient charcoal.

with an encore performance at Wishwood.
