SUMMARY:Walking as Remapping: Poem-Making from Place with Anna Swanson
DESCRIPTION:May 13.2025 6:00pm – 8:30pm\n\n\nLocation: The Boathouse Tea Room\, 116 Gordon St\, Guelph ON\nPrice: Free\nWalking as Remapping\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis walk invites participants to engage in an exploration of place through poetry. Inspired by the practice of ecological mapping and the work of writer Anna Swanson\, participants will use sight\, sound\, and texture as tools for gathering language from the world around us on this walk along the Speed and Eramosa Rivers. Throughout the walk\, landscape and cityscape will be observed not just as scenery\, but as layered texts: full of found language\, silences\, and ruptures. \nStarting and ending at the Covered Bridge steps by the Boathouse Tea Room\, this walk includes moments of observation\, note-taking\, and guided prompts that encourage poetic response. The poems created—individually and together—become a remapping of Guelph based on the sensory\, emotional\, and imagined textures of the city. No experience with poetry is required—just a willingness to walk\, to notice\, and to listen. Registration is required.
