Gaia Circle returns THIS week!
Gaia Circle is returning to the Garden THIS WEDNESDAY for their fall session! The program meets at Ithaca Children’s Garden on Wednesdays from 4:00-6:00 pm, starting September 22 until November 10th.

Gaia Circle is a FREE program for 6-8th grade grrls of all kinds: those who love their girl selves, those who are uncomfortable with girlness, or those for whom girlness has never felt right; those who haven’t thought much about what it means to be a girl, and those who feel no gender limits at all. In addition to encouraging curiosity, respect, and gratitude for the natural world around us, Gaia Circle encourages the same attitude of exploration, respect, and care as we learn about ourselves with each other.

We look forward to exploring through the new season!
