SUMMARY:Poetry Along the Columbia River Gorge
DESCRIPTION:Poetry Along the Columbia River Gorge\nSave the Dates: April 11 & 12, Saturday and Sunday\nA pop-up Celebration of Words and Vision will be shown along the Columbia River Gorge. Poetry and art will be along two Car Free trails of Historic Columbia River Highway ~paved and accessible.\nMore information: https://gorgepedal.com/gppoetry/\nCome celebrate the work of Claudia Luna Castro, Kara Briggs, Kelly Lenox, and Speakthunder Berry. Read their words and see their artwork as landscapes of the heart & mind of the Columbia River Gorge.\nLet your own heart, mind, and eyes take in this place unique to the world.\nCome Walk, Roll, or Cycle these Car Free paved trails along two sections, 1) Wyeth to Starvation Creek and 2) Hatfield Twin Tunnels trails. Accessible Restrooms are at both ends of each trail.\nEach pop-up section has embedded poetry and art along each 4-mile trail section. Two artists will have their artwork near one of the initial trail entrances within a half mile from the parking lot. Two poets will have their poems near the middle of the 4-mile total length (e.g. at 1.5 to 2 miles from either end). Those not used to walking/rolling/cycling a lot can enjoy a short distance from the parking lot for two spots for poems and artwork.\nFor those wanting more, consider doing both two loops of about 8 miles each! Remember this is not an athletic event; it is time to take a break from the madness of the world and imbibe the grandeur of this very world we call the Gorge. Sadly, there is no car free connection between the two trails nor are direct transit connections available between these two event destinations.\nTrail comment: Both trails have an ADA appropriate 5% grades and are relatively easy for parents with strollers & people using assistive devices. This event is a Welcome for All Bodies, All Ages, All Bikes, All Abilities for reinvigorating hearts & minds. Maps & I-84 exit directions available.\n
