Nature Walk + Picnic

  • Israel Wittman Sanctuary 99 Old Sawmill Road Saugerties, New York, 12477 United States (map)

Join local nature artist and illustrator Zoe Keller and local sound artist and nature recordist Zaneta Sykes for a walk at Woodstock Land Conservancy’s Israel Wittman Sanctuary - a 210-acre preserve featuring vernal pools, a seasonal stream, bluestone quarries, and many native plants and animals.

During a low-key hike, we’ll hear from Zaneta about their new nature album and book, Invitations from the Land: the Zena Highwoods, which was recorded at the sanctuary, and from Zoe about advocating for the protection of the Zena Woods as co-chair of Stop Zena Development.

After the walk we’ll enjoy a BYO picnic lunch in the forest, so bring your lunch and a small blankets to sit on if you like. Be sure to RSVP as parking at the sanctuary is limited.
