Calgary’s Best Walks and The Joy of Walking

Lori’s visual presentation celebrates the joy of exploring Calgary on foot and becoming a tourist in your own city. Through her writing and presentations, Lori entices us to become explorers, to rediscover our communities, to find surprise and delight in overlooked corners, and to slow down and truly see the places we live. Lori’s books will be for sale at the event.
