On Belonging in the Outdoors- Akiima Price

Join us for our free, virtual, spring speaker series, On Belonging in Outdoor Spaces hosted by Farrington Nature Linc, deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, The Food Project, Lincoln Land Conservation Trust, Mass Audubon, and the Walden Woods Project.

This series, running March - June, will feature prominent speakers whose work is advancing efforts to strengthen belonging and connection between communities of color and the benefits of time in nature.  Our speakers will be Akiima Price, Evelyn Rydz, Dr. Monica White and Dr. J. Drew Lanham.

This coming Wednesday, March 10th at 7pm ET we will welcome our first speaker, Akiima Price, an award-winning family and community engagement specialist. Ms. Price's innovative programming strategies feature nature as a powerful medium to connect stressed youth, adults, and families in meaningful, positive experiences that affect the way they feel about themselves, their communities, and their parks. Akiima Price will share her experience with these topics in her talk, "Meaningful Nature Engagement in Stressed Communities." Please join us in welcoming the first of many exceptional speakers as we continue to work to ensure all outdoor spaces are welcoming and inclusive.
