SUMMARY:PsycheNatur: Human Minds in Natural Spaces\, Aesthetics & Perception
DESCRIPTION:This event is hosted by the North Cascades Institute \nThis is a virtual event \nClass Tuition: $10 \nTo register for this event click here. \nFor a much longer time than our very recent revisiting of what it means to be human on our planet\, our psycho-biology\, sense of aesthetics\, notions of self\, down to the manner in which we perceive the natural world (including ourselves)\, have been a seamless and integrated whole. \nOnly in the most rare occasions can one glimpse the integral nature of these factors in the way that our ancestors existed in natural spaces. \nFurthermore\, Paul Shepard invokes the very notion of psychological dysfunction when he asks: “What can one say of the prospect of the future in a world where increasing injury to the planet is a symptom of human psychopathology? What are the means and the effects of this psychological amputation?” \nThis foundational questioning leads to a revisiting of constructs we once thought were obvious\, such as taken-for-granted definitions of “nature\,” “self”\, or “connection.” To the extent that approaches such as “nature aesthetics” subsumes various facets of the aforementioned integrated whole\, Psychenatur\, then in the words of the philosopher James Dow\, we can ask the following questions: “What is a natural environment? What is relevant\, psychologically speaking\, to the aesthetic appreciation of natural environments? What is the relationship between nature aesthetics and environmental ethics? \nThrough further readings and discussions\, participants will have an opportunity to recapitulate and then chart new ways of rethinking their own place on natural spaces in more integral and thus inclusive ways; eyes wide open! \nThis class is being taught by Dr. George Conesa\, an interdisciplinary thinker with an academic and professional background in biology\, philosophy\, and experimental psychology. Dr. Conesa edits the International Journal of Ecopsychology (IJE) at CAL POLY Humboldt and has taught courses on animal behavior and cognition\, in addition to many other pursuits.

SUMMARY:An Introduction to Lichens
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the Wenatchee River Institute\n\nBack by popular demand\, in this hands-on workshop you will create your own lichen ID chart using local specimens. You will also discover that there are lichens all around you. Late winter is a great time to see them too\, as wind and snow have knocked them out of trees and there are fewer leaves to hide them in trees and shrubs. You may even find that a single branch has five or more species. With your chart you will get better acquainted with lichens and you will learn what to look for when using lichen identification guides.\n\nYour presenter is Don Schaechtel\, a Leavenworth resident and past president of the Washington Native Plant Society.\n\nSpace is limited\, so sign up fast! Class size: 20\n\nCost is Pay What You Can. Choose a price that is reasonable for you. WRI offers this in recognition that not everyone can afford to pay for classes. We hope that people who can\, will pay to help those you cannot.\n\nFor more information and to register click here.

SUMMARY:Exploring the Winter World
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by North Cascades Institute \nThis is a virtual event. \nClass Tuition: $10 \nTo register for this event click here. \nWhat makes winters so enjoyable? When outside amidst a heavy rain or snow\, we naturally begin to wonder: What’s playing on our senses? Who else is out here? What might they be up to\, and which behaviors are unique to winter?  \nIncrease your appreciation and excitement for the winter season by learning a bit more about the adaptations of various birds\, animals and plants adapted to thrive in the North Cascade mountains. This virtual class will provide the tools for you to hone your field observation skills and provide insight\, stories and clues for fostering a deeper connection to our winter world. \nYou may know her from her popular virtual geology program\, or from her North Cascadian trivia program\, or perhaps  you bumped into her while she was frolicking in the hills\, singing with the birds\, and collecting wonderful stones—she’s Gina Roberti! Gina returns to the Institute’s virtual venue for this invernal delight.

SUMMARY:Western Monarchs: Migration\, Adaptation and Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Red Barn event at Wenatchee River Institute/Zoom hybrid: Western Monarchs: Migration\, Adaptation and Resilience by David G James February 22\, 2023. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.\, start at 7:00 p.m. \nhttps://www.wnps.org/wv-events/calendar/1782 \nThis presentation by Dr. David G. James will provide the results of recent research on the migration biology of monarchs in the Pacific Northwest\, as well as insights into the ability of monarchs to adapt to a warming climate. Despite reports to the contrary\, the monarch does not face irretrievable doom and gloom. Instead\, it is a shining example of how an insect can alter its biology to better suit a changing environment.  Threats do exist to monarch survival (pesticides\, host plant loss\, parasites) however\, none are overwhelming. A holistic view of monarch biology and ecology better describes the ability of this species to persist and show resilience.
