Pine Street Carpenters to Launch an Innovative Community Writing Project with Tyler Arboretum
Local remodeling company teams up with local environmental non-profit to create a community-wide writing project.
West Chester, PA, May 14, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Pine Street Carpenters, Inc., a design-build remodeling company based in West Chester, has teamed up with Tyler Arboretum in Media to launch “The Tyler Arboretum Writing Project,” an innovative community writing project set to commence later this month.
The writing project is part of an innovative exhibit Pine Street Carpenters is building for Tyler Arboretum’s upcoming exhibit called Nature’s Enchantment.
Opening May 29 and running through October 31, visitors to Nature’s Enchantment will find Tyler Arboretum’s woodlands alive with magical creatures who have come to call the arboretum home. Gnomes, trolls, hobbits and more have laid claim to these woods, and the public is invited to visit the natural world in which they live.
Tyler Arboretum has teamed up with local artisans and craftsmen to bring Nature’s Enchantment to life. As one of the exhibitors, Pine Street Carpenters is creating a unique and mysterious exhibit – an ancient unexplained door leading underground. It begs the question: What Lies Beneath?
To answer that question, visitors of all ages are encouraged to use their imaginations to create a story or poem inspired by Pine Street Carpenters’ exhibit What Lies Beneath? Submitted stories will be collectively published on a newly launched website – www.tylerarboretumwritingproject.com.
“Pine Street Carpenters is thrilled to partner with Tyler Arboretum on this unique community writing project,” says Michael Dolan, Director of Marketing and Communications for Pine Street Carpenters. “Not only does this initiative engage the community in nature, but it encourages people of all ages to reach into their imaginations and create their own stories.”
“It’s a great way to get kids (and adults) to write,” says Dolan. “Pine Street’s exhibit will serve as a unique ‘writer’s prompt,’ and by collectively publishing the community’s stories online, hopefully we’ll be encouraging and inspiring some great budding writers out there!”
This exhibit is not the first time Pine Street Carpenters has partnered with Tyler Arboretum. In 2008, as part of the arboretum’s wildly popular exhibit Totally Terrific Treehouses, Pine Street Carpenters constructed a replica of writer and naturalist Henry David Thoreau’s cabin at Walden Pond. The replica cabin remains at Tyler Arboretum still today.
