SUMMARY:Queer & Trans Community Forest Bathing
DESCRIPTION:Experience a guided forest bathing walk through Hoyt Arboretum’s unique tree collection and forested areas. Forest Bathing (also known as Forest Therapy) offers many health benefits from stress relief to immune system and mood support. Forest therapy is a research-based framework for supporting healing and wellness through immersion in forests and other natural environments. Forest therapy is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku\, which translates to “forest bathing.” Studies have demonstrated a wide array of health benefits\, especially in the cardiovascular and immune systems\, and for stabilizing and improving mood and cognition. We build on those benefits and look beyond\, to what happens when people remember that we are a part of nature\, not separate from it\, and are related to all other beings in fundamental ways. Note: Please only register for this workshop if you identify as queer or trans. \nThis event is coordinated by Hoyt Arboretum and registration is required through their website.

SUMMARY:QUEER ECOLOGY - Portland EcoFilm Fest
DESCRIPTION:The Portland EcoFilm Festival presents its first ever screening at Cinema 21! It’s an encore presentation of this season’s QUEER ECOLOGY program\, featuring three new films by queer filmmakers about intersections of nature\, ecology\, disability\, Indigeneity\, and queerness. \nThe Portland EcoFilm Festival presents:\nAn encore presentation of QUEER ECOLOGY (2025) — Three new short films make up this program: \nANIMAL PRIDE\nCanada | 2024 | 49 minutes | Dir. Rio Mitchell \nIn this super fun\, eye opening documentary\, Connel Bradwell\, a queer naturalist\, challenges mainstream biology’s blindspot for queer behavior in nature. Schooled in the birds and the bees\, survival of the fittest\, and The Origin of Species\, Connel explores the disconnective fallacy: how can humans be queer\, while animals supposedly aren’t? \nÁHKUIN\nOfficial Selection\, 2025 Indigenous Voices Series \nFinland | 2024 | 20 minutes\nDir. Radio-JusSunná / Sunná Nousuniemi\, Guhtur Niillas Rita Duomis / Tuomas Kumpulainen \nWith the singular Sámi oral storytelling tradition of joik at its center\, ÁHKUIN is a visual and musical call-and-response between a grandmother and her descendants. Archival interviews and the joik of Maarit-áhkku (queer director Sunná Máret Nousuniemi’s grandmother) unspool as a connective thread across time\, inviting us through a portal into this corner of Sápmi. Here\, the rhythms of time are set by the daily tasks that assured the survival of those who came before. \nMOSS TIME\, CRIP TIME\nUSA | 2024 | 14 minutes | Dir. Cynthia Ling Lee \nReveling in micro-movement and lingering in moss-time\, this dance film embodies gratitude to moss as beloved teacher of lessons in crip survival and thriving. Celebrate smallness. Practice patience. Grow only when there is enough resource. Nestle in the warmth and safety of the boundary layer. Survive in the most unexpected places. (Contains experimental audio description and open captions.) \n  \nEvent Link: https://www.cinema21.com/movie/the-portland-ecofilm-festival-queer-ecology \n  \n\n  \nThe 2025 Portland EcoFilm Festival features dozens of the best new ecological films from around the world\, our annual Indigenous Voices series\, several special presentations\, community conversations with special guests\, and opportunities to engage with organizations that are involved in multifaceted\, broad-based ecological solutions. \nOur festival season lasts several months\, providing the opportunity to integrate these important films more thoroughly into the programming of the Hollywood Theatre\, a beloved cultural institution.
