SUMMARY:2025 The Unforeseen Wilderness: Nature\, Bookbinding\, and Photography with Eliot Dudik
DESCRIPTION:Join a small group of folks for a six-day intensive workshop exploring an unusual confluence of interests: bookbinding\, photography\, and nature walks in one of the most profound places on Earth: Acadia National Park. Tranquility and focus will be our guide as we lodge and work on the Schoodic Peninsula\, often referred to as the “quiet side” of Acadia\, dividing our time between classroom bookbinding sessions and stepping out into a wonderland of spruce\, granite\, and sea. \nThe workshop is led by bookmaker\, photographer\, and educator Eliot Dudik\, who directs the photography program at the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg\, Virginia. He has spent every summer and winter in Maine for the past decade working on his own long-form photography projects\, teaching photography and bookbinding workshops\, and exploring the coast of Maine\, especially the dreamscape of Acadia National Park. He has been visualizing this unique workshop for years and is excited to work with you this summer!\n \nThe structure of the course: Throughout our week together\, we will meet in our workspace to explore bookbinding basics including methods\, materials\, and book structures. All bookbinding tools and materials will be provided. We will practice four different bindings over the course of the week\, each building on skills learned in the previous lesson. These books will be blank and can be used as journals or sketchbooks. \nEach day will be split between classroom bookbinding tutorials and nature walks in the woods of Acadia National Park. Excursions will include morning or afternoon walks\, as well as full day trips to the busier and more popular/populated parts of Acadia on Mount Desert Island. On these nature walks\, we will attempt to take in the famously breathtaking beauty while using cameras\, pencils\, or other artistic tools and Wendel Berry’s essay: The Unforeseen Wilderness to inspire our individualized experiences. \n \nAt the conclusion of our week together\, we will each create a short edit and sequence of photographs\, writings\, sketches\, collages\, or other artworks made in Acadia and produce small books of the work. The photographs can be made with cell phones or more sophisticated digital cameras. Participants will bring their own cameras and ideally a laptop with Adobe Photoshop installed. \nThe available lodging and meal plan complete this unique and immersive experience\, allowing us to disconnect from our everyday lives and truly experience something special\, uniquely embedded inside the national park. This workshop is intentionally limited to a small group of participants to enhance the individualized experience; don’t delay signing up as this workshop will fill quickly! \nFor any questions regarding the workshop\, please contact Eliot directly at eliot@eliotdudik.com. \n

SUMMARY:No Time to Wait: Science Organizations as the New Adaptation Leaders feat. Doug Parsons
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our 2025 Summer Lecture Series!\nJoin us in person at Schoodic Institute or online via Zoom on Tuesday\, July 8 at 7:00pm for No Time to Wait: Science Organizations as the New Adaptation Leaders featuring Doug Parsons\, Director of America Adapts Media and host of America Adapts – The Climate Change Podcast. \nDoug Parsons is the Director of America Adapts Media and host of America Adapts – The Climate Change Podcast.\nAs the federal government steps back from climate leadership and science comes under increasing attack\, the role of science organizations has never been more critical. At the local level\, these groups are essential in not just advancing climate adaptation but also creating widespread awareness of its urgency. Too often\, adaptation is overlooked in climate discussions\, yet it is vital for protecting communities and ecosystems. In this talk\, Doug Parsons\, host of America Adapts – The Climate Change Podcast\, will explore how research institutions can lead the way in bridging the gap between science\, policy\, and public understanding. With real-world examples and insights from his global storytelling\, Doug will highlight why now is the time for science organizations to step up\, ensuring that adaptation becomes a central focus in the climate conversation. \nDoug Parsons is the Director of America Adapts Media and host of America Adapts – The Climate Change Podcast. A recognized leader in climate adaptation\, Doug has worked at the intersection of science communication\, policy\, and media for over a decade. He has traveled the world telling stories of adaptation\, highlighting the people\, policies\, and innovations shaping our climate future. His career includes roles with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and the National Park Service\, as well as adaptation work in Australia. Doug is a sought-after speaker\, consultant\, and storyteller\, helping organizations and audiences understand the urgency and opportunities in climate adaptation.
