The Unseen Walk is a reflective, educational walk. It will encourage us to consider the lives and stories of those who’ve been displaced through written prompts, visual displays, and audio stories. By participating, you’ll be guided into tales of hardship, beauty, and welcome; helping you to see the unseen.
-
The Unseen Walk will be available from Saturday, November 1 through Saturday, Nov. 22* and is a drop-in, self paced activity. We estimate that it will take approximately 60 minutes to complete.
*Due to inclement weather, not all visual exhibits will remain past the opening weekend.
-
The walk will take place on the Prayer Path at Port City Community Church’s Wilmington campus, which is roughly a 1/4 mile loop. To begin, look for the white pergola in the woods across from the main parking lot.
-
Everyone! All ages are welcome to participate. Please note that the prayer path is not paved, though it is mostly level ground.
