Please note: The book is also available as a paperback through major book retailers under the title: On Looking: A Walker's Guide to the Art of Observation.
Attendees are encouraged to wear comfortable clothing and shoes. Light refreshments provided. Please meet at the Southwest Library for carpool to a local park walking trail. Registration required.
