About the event
Telling Our Stories Speaker Series

Author, poet and editor, Ruth E. Walker will tell the story of Halls Island Artist Residency, highlight various artists who've been there through the residency, and describe the impact on the artists and on our local community.
In the summer of 2023, local artists Sandi Luck, Nadine Papp and Wendy Wood shared a residency on Halls Island. Together they worked on eco-dying and eco-printing using the vegetative matter from the island.

Sandra Bouza, another Halls Island alumni and wonderfully talented singer/songwriter will be here to share her incredible story and perform a few of her songs.
