Alabama Rivers Alliance (ARA) and the Alabama Poetry Delegation have partnered to bring poetry to the outdoors by creating eco-poetry films and offering workshops open to the public.

ARA's summer Poet & Film Fellow, Erika E. Wade, will share the beautiful poem she created this summer during the Southern Exposure Film Fellowship program, KNOWING. Her poem and short film explore personal themes of family, community, and access to nature. Erika will lead a writing workshop for ANYONE, regardless of experience. Feel free to enjoy the winding creek and waterfall, right here in this beautiful location, before or after the writing exercise. We will send you more details about parking, etc. after you register.
