ASHLAND, Neb. (AP) — People are invited to join singer-songwriter and conservation advocate Erica Wheeler for The Soulful Landscape workshop Sunday at Eugene T. Mahoney State Park near Ashland.

Writers of all experience levels and others are encouraged to attend.

The workshop includes a presentation on place-based arts, followed by writing exercises. Participants will learn how to generate fresh metaphors for use in songs, stories, poems and essays.
