Join us for a garden gathering exploring what we nurture and what nurtures us.

Together, we'll slow down, spend time in the garden, engage with selected readings and reflect on the people, places and practices that sustain us. We’ll gather around a simple question: What are you nurturing right now, and what is nurturing you?

Consider the places throughout DC where you feel cared for, connected and restored as Capital M begins documenting the spaces that nurture mothers across the city.

A relaxed, facilitated garden gathering with time to read, reflect, connect with other DC mothers and share as much or as little as you choose. Children are welcome to attend and enjoy the garden alongside you.

This event is part of Capital M: Exploring Motherhood Across Wards and Generations in DC, a multimedia community storytelling and humanities project documenting and celebrating the lived experiences of DC mothers.

Using oral history, public storytelling, facilitated dialogue, and a culminating community exhibition, the project examines a singular question: “How does Washington, DC shape the experience of motherhood — and how do mothers shape the Nation’s Capital in return?”

Photography + Recording Notice: By attending this event, you acknowledge that photography, audio recording, and video recording may take place throughout the program.
