Welcome to Carey West’s sound walk. Carey’s walk explores The Arboretum and makes connections with the Ward neighbourhood in Guelph where she lives. All along the way, Carey is searching for belonging, her own. Her wanders in the woods are full of song until she meets ‘her tree,’ a quiet refuge. Trigger warning: this story discusses domestic violence. Please take care of yourself as you listen and feel free to pause or discontinue the audio walk if you need too. (Original music by Carey West, soundtrack by Jeff Bird) You will need your cellphone AND headphones (and maybe bug spray, sunscreen, and water!).
