SUMMARY:Sound Bath Meditation: Spring Section
DESCRIPTION:With early access to Mt. Cuba’s tranquil setting\, immerse yourself in a restorative sound bath that gently harmonizes mind\, body\, and environment. While focusing on resonant tones of singing bowls\, also notice the garden’s living soundscape: birds calling\, leaves rustling\, and subtle natural rhythms that deepen a sense of calm and presence. \nResearch suggests that sound-based relaxation practices can support the body’s natural relaxation response\, helping to ease stress\, lower heart rate\, and quiet the mind. Time spent immersed in nature has similarly been shown to enhance mood\, reduce anxiety\, and foster a sense of connection and clarity. This experience thoughtfully weaves these two practices together\, offering a unique opportunity to unwind\, reset\, and deepen your connection with the natural world. Whether you’re seeking relaxation\, grounding\, or quiet renewal\, we invite you to this quiet dialogue between you\, intentional sound\, and the natural world. \nAfter class\, enjoy your own unique experience exploring our gardens and natural lands\, with garden admission included. \nThis program takes place in-person at Mt. Cuba Center Two Sundays: 5/3 and 5/10 (Rain Date: Sunday\, May 17). \n About the Instructor: \nLiana Thompson completed the Vibration Sound Therapy Certified Practitioner training with the Vibrational Sound Association in 2019. Her passion is in helping others gently address stress and emotional trauma using the healing sounds of the Tibetan singing bowls. \nREGISTER NOW: \nGeneral Public \nIndividual+ & Dual+ Members \nSupporter\, Advocate & Conservator Members \n

DESCRIPTION:A walking tour through our historic neighborhood\n\n\nPhiladelphia is a city of neighborhoods and as we celebrate the US 250 come find out more about North Fairmount. \nIn the decades after the American Revolution\, Philadelphia was at the forefront of the creation of new institutions such as schools\, charities\, and reform societies to address social problems and promote civic virtue in the young nation. Many of these would ultimately find a home in Fairmount. On this walking tour from Girard College to Eastern State Penitentiary\, we will explore some of many institutions that are part of our neighborhood’s history. \nIn 1821\, when what is now Fairmount was farmland\, the Philadelphia Society for Alleviating the Miseries of Public Prisons urged the creation of the nation’s first penitentiary as a means of prison reform. Eastern State opened its doors in 1829. Girard College\, a boarding school for financially-disadvantaged children\, came soon after\, with construction beginning in 1833. Over time\, these two massive establishments were joined by a variety of institutions\, from the Women’s Medical College to the first public school in Philadelphia designed specifically for students with physical disabilities. \nOur tour will start at the Girard College gate. We will then walk through the neighborhood\, looking at sites of current and former institutions before ending at 22nd and Fairmount\, at the corner of Eastern State Penitentiary.

Among many other bird-related things\, he is a Regional Coordinator for the 3rd Pennsylvania Bird Atlas (2024-29) and organizes the city’s breeding and mid-winter bird censuses.  \nThis event is also a part of Remake Learning Days\, a national celebration of innovative experiences and opportunities for youth to develop their sense of creativity\, perseverance and curiosity. \nThe Wagner’s 100\,000+ natural history collection will also be available for self-guided exploration throughout the day. Browse ancient fossils\, glowing minerals\, and animals from around the globe.

SUMMARY:Designing Stunning Spaces with Native Plants: From Species to Space
DESCRIPTION:Take next steps with an exclusive opportunity to work alongside one of the landscape designers involved in Mt. Cuba’s Master Plan and Glade Entrance Garden. This immersive\, hands-on workshop explores the craft of landscape design and how to create unforgettable outdoor spaces in collaboration with the plants you love. Through quick\, creative exercises\, you’ll learn to analyze inspiring garden spaces and understand how your emotional response connects to plant selection\, spacing\, and seasonality. You’ll practice reading a site—its physical qualities\, its opportunities\, and the aesthetic or habitat goals you want it to achieve—and then translate those insights into measured drawings that reflect your design intentions. \nUsing Mt. Cuba’s gardens as your living classroom\, you’ll experiment with designing directly in the field at a designated test site\, applying principles of composition\, scale\, and plant-driven design. You’ll also gain experience drawing to scale and turning a conceptual sketch into a practical planting plan\, complete with sizes and quantities.\nBy the end of the workshop\, you’ll have a deeper understanding of how to shape meaningful\, plant-centered landscapes and the confidence to bring your own design ideas to life. Lunch is included. Class is held rain or shine. \nThis program takes place in-person at Mt. Cuba Center Saturday\, May 2\, 2026. \n🥬 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) available  \n About the Instructor: \nChloe Hawkins (BA\, Oberlin College 2003; MLA\, University of Virginia 2010) is a visual artist and the Founder and Director of Cohort\, a landscape architecture practice committed to deepening the intertwined relationships between people\, plants and place. A Lecturer at UVA’s School of Architecture\, she teaches graduate courses in technical design skills\, plants\, and landscape maintenance as a creative design tool. Formerly with NBWLA\, Chloe was the lead designer of Mt. Cuba’s Glade Garden and co-led the master plan and first phase of implementation. She’s thrilled to return and engage the gardens as a living classroom. \nREGISTER NOW: \nGeneral Public \nIndividual+ & Dual+ Members \nSupporter\, Advocate & Conservator Members \n
