“Listening With” Workshop w/ BAC Artist-in-Residence Alethea Pace

“Listening With” Workshop w/ BAC Artist-in-Residence Alethea Pace
DATE & TIME: Sunday September 28, 2025 1-2:30 PM
LOCATION: Louis Engel Waterfront Park, 25 Westerly Rd Ossining NY (Ossining waterfront green space in front of stage)
For all ages!

Join us for a gentle and reflective workshop exploring our relationship with the Hudson River through memory, movement, writing, and storytelling.  

“Listening With” invites us to slow down and attune to the river—not just as a body of water, but as a living being with wisdom, agency, and its own story to tell. Grounded in the principles of the Rights of Nature movement, this session, open to all ages, invites us to consider the Hudson River not as a resource to be used, but as a relative, a witness, a neighbor, and a carrier of histories. Together, we’ll explore what it means to listen to the river—through our bodies, our memories, and our imaginations. Participants will engage in guided reflection, gentle movement, and embodied writing practices to co-create expressions of care and responsibility for the river. 

This event is a Fall Multidisciplinary Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program. Community Programs are a unique opportunity for both artists-in-residence and our local community to gather, engage, and be in conversation with one another through art. Community Programs are free engagements open to the public and/or in collaboration with a local community partners. Learn more about this year’s Fall Multidisciplinary Residency here!
