WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
Join us in welcoming Eve and Trekker Sibley, co-creators of the ecological card game STEWARD, for a dynamic 4-part workshop series exploring the ecosystems of the Outer Cape.
Participants will begin by playing the original version of STEWARD, inspired by the South Carolina Low Country, then collaborate to imagine and create a Provincetown-based version of the game. Together, we’ll explore the unique intertidal ecosystems of Provincetown, considering their beauty, complexity, and vulnerability.
Each session will focus on a different local ecosystem, inviting participants to learn about its characteristics, identify environmental threats, and explore ways to become better stewards of our coastal environment. Whether you attend all four sessions or drop in for one, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how everyday actions can help protect our shores.
The series will culminate in a guided walk on the flats with Provincetown Shellfish Constable Steve Wisbauer, offering a firsthand look at the ecosystems explored throughout the workshop.
