Fostering a Deep Connection with Nature
Anythink Libraries
This summer, Anythink Libraries is encouraging patrons to gather outdoors by supporting the well-being of their community. The library is working with Jayson Fann, an artist from Monterey, Calif., who builds spirit nests from reclaimed wood. Six nests have been commissioned, with four already completed. In one of the local communities, people foraged for wood and helped build the nest. “We wanted to build that moment of wonder and recovery and healing and the connection to nature that you get walking in nature, as opposed to learning about rocks and what-not.” said Director of Customer Experience Suzanne McGowan.
