Fifteen years old\, gawky\, egotistical\, and recently orphaned\, the young Mary Russell displays an intellect to impress even Sherlock Holmes. Under his reluctant tutelage\, this very modern\, twentieth-century woman proves a deft protégée and a fitting partner for the Victorian detective. They are soon called to Wales to help Scotland Yard find the kidnapped daughter of an American senator\, a case of international significance with clues that dip deep into Holmes’s past. Full of brilliant deduction\, disguises\, and danger\, The Beekeeper’s Apprentice\, the first book of the Mary Russell–Sherlock Holmes mysteries\, is “remarkably beguiling” (The Boston Globe). \nRegistration opens January 1st. \n \n \n \n \n \n Book Groups are open to anyone age 18 or older for whom "woman" is a meaningful identifier or lived experience. \nOur book discussion group meets for three sessions.

Our breathing slows and deepens\, our postural alignment improves\, and we begin to cultivate an inner field of quiet and self-compassion. These benefits bring vitality to our systems and a feeling of being at home in our bodies. \nChairs are provided. Please wear comfortable clothing\, in layers\, for warm and cool conditions. Elastic waistbands are essential to prevent breath obstruction. Sneakers are good\, and shoes may stay on during practice. If you have yoga blocks\, please bring them.  No mat is needed. \nGeri Valentine is the instructor for this series. She is certified in both Yin and Kripalu Yoga\, forms of Hatha Yoga. She has offered Yoga through WHRL for 18 years. This Chair Yoga session is a modified version of Hatha. \nFor questions\, contact Geri Valentine at 207-598-5355. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 2026 Winter Chair Yoga with Geri Valentine\n \n Chair Yoga - Winter SessionThis session is full.

These periods of dislocation can be lonely and unexpected. For May\, her husband fell ill\, her son stopped attending school\, and her own medical issues led her to leave a demanding job. Wintering explores how she not only endured this painful time\, but embraced the singular opportunities it offered. \nA moving personal narrative shot through with lessons from literature\, mythology\, and the natural world\, May’s story offers instruction on the transformative power of rest and retreat. Illumination emerges from many sources: solstice celebrations and dormice hibernation\, C.S. Lewis and Sylvia Plath\, swimming in icy waters\, and sailing arctic seas. \nUltimately Wintering invites us to change how we relate to our own fallow times. May models an active acceptance of sadness and finds nourishment in deep retreat\, joy in the hushed beauty of winter\, and encouragement in understanding life as cyclical\, not linear. A secular mystic\, May forms a guiding philosophy for transforming the hardships that arise before the ushering in of a new season. \n \n \n \n \n \n Book Groups are open to anyone age 18 or older for whom "woman" is a meaningful identifier or lived experience. \nOur book discussion group meets for three sessions.

Writing can facilitate that process\, especially when it is practiced regularly for expression and contemplation. The practice of free-writing has been shown by science—and by 100+ generations of human experience—to nurture mental and physical health. The same is true for spending time together\, sharing\, and learning in meaningful ways. \nThis group will meet on six winter nights – from January through March – to explore and play with various creative approaches to expressive writing and journaling. \n\nThe main goal of these writing practices will be to increase our access to our true selves by quieting or eluding our inner editors and critics.\nThe first few sessions will be guided\, while the structure of later sessions could evolve as the group progresses.\nSharing your writing will be optional. Being part of a consistent group does make it easier to connect and to share. Inspiration happens that way.\nWriting by hand – rather than on a keyboard – is strongly encouraged.\nBYO snacks\, blankets\, favorite old hoodie… whatever feels comfortable!\n\nWhether you already have a writing practice or haven’t written since you were forced to do so in school\, this group should be rewarding for you. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Rebecca Hunter lives in Sullivan and works as a psychotherapist. When not talking with clients or roaming the outdoors by foot\, ski\, and paddle\, she is usually hanging out with her dogs\, compulsively gardening\, maintaining her old house\, woods trails\, and woodlot\, studying depth psychology\, writing\, making random art\, cooking\, and talking with friends and family (and dogs). \nRebecca has either facilitated or participated in several expressive writing groups over the last 20 years. She often incorporates writing exercises in her therapy practice: both with clients and as a client. Her own varied writing habits are central to her daily work of living. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n January 2026: Expressive Writing Series Registration\n \n Expressive Writing SeriesThis program is full.

Winter Sowing is a popular method of germinating vegetable and flower seeds. Winter Sowing saves money\, uses recycled materials\, and is a fun winter pastime. I’ve had great success\, Winter Sowing many annuals and perennials\, and the result has been some of the strongest and hardiest seedlings I’ve ever grown. During the workshop\, you will learn step by step how to create your very own Winter garden. You will take home mini greenhouses made from gallon milk jugs\, which can then remain outside until their perfect germination conditions arrive. It’s amazing! Jacquie Leighton lives in Milbridge in an old farmhouse at the head of Pigeon Hill Bay. For nearly all her life\, she has had her hands in soil. Her earliest memories are of her mother’s marigold gardens\, and they are still her favorite\, winter-sown (deer-resistant). She is retired from teaching and enjoys learning new ways of creating beautiful plantings. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 2026-January: IEM - Winter Sowing\n \n Winter SowingThis session is full.
