Waking up to another morning with snow blanketing our part of the world brings to mind this quote from Albert Einstein.
In the midst of yet another lockdown, we have all become more aware of how important outdoor space is for our physical and mental wellbeing. The Einstein quote sums it up wonderfully.
We’ve got some new additions at TATO which we are excited about. We’ve launched a new series of workshops and articles, TA Earth, exploring our relationship with the world outside of our screens and homes.
We also have more of our winter series of shorter evening seminars coming up in February and March.
Rose Rylands and TA Earth
We are delighted that Rose Rylands, the keynote speaker from NETAC 2020 and Whitby Storyteller, has joined us. She is running workshops and writing a series on the theme of TA Earth – looking at our connections with nature, ecology and the planet.
Rose is also recording some stories and video blogs for us. The first is called Picking Up The Thread. Click here to watch it. Check out her monthly blog here.
