“The Nature of Nature” is the third of four monthly events in the 2026 Film & Discussion Series. This free screening and discussion is available both in person and virtually.

Watershed Wonders is a student-centered exhibition exploring how water shapes our landscapes, ecosystems, and communities. The exhibition is a collaboration between Woodstock Land Conservancy, Woodstock Elementary School, Woodstock Day School, Middle Way School, and Woodstock Library. It features work from five distinct projects across eight classrooms at three local elementary schools.

Each project invited students to investigate watersheds through art, ecology, and place-based learning, and was supported by an in-class visit from a local expert in watershed health. The projects encourage students (and exhibition visitors)  to consider their roles as watershed protectors and to better understand how local ecology is connected by water.

This workshop offers gentle movement and breath-led practice designed to support nervous system regulation through the traditional Chinese art of Qigong. While contemplating the Fontayne Kill that runs through Zena Cornfield, participants are invited to move with the qualities of water, cultivating softness, strength, and continuity through practice.
