      A Mindfulness Walk in Downtown Pasadena!

      By Wafic Khalil

      This unique walk will explore the quiet, hidden beauty of our urban center. Attendees are encouraged to bring a camera or a sketch pad, and observe the minute beauty in the most unexpected places.

      This hidden treasure walk is the last installment of the “Thirty Days for the Earth” celebration.  It’s an invitation to “de-stress and to notice the usually ignored little beauties around us” according to curator Karen HIrsch.

      Get your camera or a sketch pad, meet at the Throop Learning Garden (in front of the main entrance,) and discover the “Beauty beneath Your Feet” through this Hidden City Walk.

      > Easy on the walking scale, highly nutritious for the spirit.

      A courtesy sign up is encouraged on Facebook.
