SUMMARY:Brainy Birds
DESCRIPTION:Birds are incredible and have adapted to survive in dynamic & changing environments. Every species has unique traits and sometimes quite specialized strategies. Using the backdrop of seasonal changes at Hoyt Arboretum\, Dr. Kiki Sanford will facilitate discovery of the many ways it is connected to its avian inhabitants. Winter classes will center on adaptations for surviving intense seasonal conditions. Spring brings the frenzy of breeding season. Summer includes juvenile development and the onset of the next annual cycle. And\, Autumn classes will focus on the fall migration. Each seasonal class will highlight the various birds present in the Arboretum\, and include observation & discussion of specific aspects of how their brains & bodies lead to certain behaviors useful in the Hoyt habitats. Short informal lectures and group discussions will be followed by exploratory bird-watching hikes to observe these processes in action. This event is coordinated by Hoyt Arboretum and registration is required through their website.

SUMMARY:Into the Trees: A New Year Vision Quest
DESCRIPTION:Begin 2026 with this joyful\, mini–vision quest and step into the year with clarity and intention. Dive into what you want to express and the direction your life is calling you. This workshop helps you shake off what’s complete and make space for the new energy rising within you. With the generous\, stabilizing support of the trees\, you’ll explore what is unfolding in your life. Using the Tree Transformation Oracle Deck\, each participant will receive a few personal cards to illuminate insights\, patterns\, and next steps. We’ll deepen this guidance through meditation\, visualization\, and presence practices among the trees. Being in the forest amplifies everything—clarity\, intuition\, and connection—so we will spend time outdoors as weather allows\, with sheltered space available as needed.  You will visit specific trees to assist in clarifying your vision and direction for the year ahead. This event is coordinated by Hoyt Arboretum and registration is required through their website.

SUMMARY:Cultural Demonstration: Signs of the Year to Come\, by Saga Goryu Ikebana North American Chapter
DESCRIPTION:Portland Japanese Garden is hosting a special ikebana presentation by Saga Goryu Ikebana North America Chapter from 1:15–2:15 PM in the Jordan Schnitzer Japanese Arts Learning Center. We all observe the changing of the year together—a nearly universal\, shared experience. With preparation\, we can shape perception and transform a simple calendar change into a ritual. This program explores how Japanese New Year traditions express preparation and welcome through the living art of ikebana. Ikebana\, the Japanese art of flower arranging\, is more than decoration. It is a practice of harmonizing nature\, intention\, and form.
