About Event
What will the persimmon seeds forecast about the winter ahead?
Our October edition of Monthly Molting highlights the American Persimmon (Diospyros virginiana) — ancient fruit tree, master of patience, autumn's candy maker. Come explore the lessons these golden orb-bearers have for our own lives as learn when to hold on and when to let go.
What are Monthly Moltings?
In Monthly Moltings, join us to shed our human-centered perspectives and investigate the intimate lives of nonhumans in NYC. Each month, we’ll reflect and learn from the wisdom of how one species changes and adapts to change as autumn arrives. Come for ancient stories, playful movement exercises, and deep attention to the urban ecology of our city.
