SUMMARY:The Art of Walking
DESCRIPTION:The Art of Walking\nBoone Greenway and Kennedy Trail\nFirst Fridays\, 3:00-4:30pm\n\nA 3-mile loop with an art theme to complement the First Friday Art Crawl in Boone on the first Friday of each month.

During the walks\, we’ll find a place to sit for a few minutes to draw or write about what we’re experiencing so bring your favorite tools to capture the moments. Journaling is totally optional and there is no need to share with others. This is an incredibly beautiful greenway. The Kennedy Trail has a natural surface complete with roots\, rocks and hills. After the hike\, the group can reconvene at the Turchin Center for the Arts at 5:00pm to enjoy the First Fridays Art Crawl in downtown Boone. The walking event is free but registration is suggested so we know you’re coming. Contact Jae at BlueRidgeFriend@gmail.com
