This event was inspired by the book, All Creation Waits by Gayle Boss.

Winter is the season of dwindling light and gathering cold – with a mystery at its core. Animals of the northern hemisphere enact that mystery. Watching them, we can find a way to face our primal fear of the dark and cold, a healthier way than falling into depression or spiraling into frenzied distraction.

All Creation Waits opens a window onto the world of an animal amazingly, ingeniously adapting when darkness and cold descend.
