Join us for the opening of Still Moving and meet artist Tracy Walsh while you explore her photographs and enjoy light refreshments.
Still Moving is a photography-based exhibition that explores the relationship between mental health, water, and seasonal cycles through imagery rooted in the natural world. Drawing parallels between the movement of the Mississippi River and the inner landscapes of the human mind, the project invites viewers to slow down, reflect, and recognize that stillness is not an absence of motion but an active and necessary state of rest.
The exhibition unfolds in four sections — Pause, Within, Confluence, and Return — inviting visitors to move through the work in a way that echoes the flow of a river and the rhythm of seasonal change. Through frozen botanicals, macro studies, double exposures, and layered interior and exterior compositions, the photographs reflect both watershed processes and lived emotional experience, especially during winter months in northern climates.
By encouraging reflection, creative engagement, and sensory awareness, Still Moving offers a gentle way to navigate the winter blues and reconnect with the quiet resilience present in both our rivers and ourselves.
This event is free, but registration is required.
 📅 March 7 | 3:00–5:00 p.m. & April 11, 2026 | 10:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. 📍 MWMO Stormwater Park and Learning Center
Join us for a guided sound bath experience that invites you to connect with the mind and the river, beginning with a pause that invites stillness and listening. The human body is made of nearly 60% water, mirroring the river’s own flowing nature. In this session, you’ll be guided into stillness, turning your attention inward to notice subtle movement, breath, and rhythm.
The river’s flow creates sound as water meets rock. The crystal singing bowls, formed from earth, stone, and crystal, carry these same elemental origins. As their tones fill the space, gentle vibrations move through the body, bringing inner and outer waters into into confluence, resonating through the body. In this shared sound and stillness, we return to a natural rhythm, remembering a sense of presence that has always been there.
This immersive workshop offers a moment of rest, reflection, and sensory connection that encourages you to slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with both yourself and the river.
This event is free, but registration is required.
