Creaturely Gratitude
An energetic and spirited tone, set by inspired worship, deep discussion and creative workshops, permeated the whole event. In one workshop participants practiced “creatureliness” by imagining themselves as part of the more than human world; embodying and speaking for everything from moose to “dump bears” to bogs and riverbanks, prairie grasses and the soil itself. Other workshops included learning about the Manitoba Sturgeon, biking advocacy, song writing as advocacy and peeling back the layers on climate and militarism.
