DELAWARE: A group hike

What an interesting idea! My friend Carol Maurer usually leads circular walks through the Delaware Art Museum's labyrinth, but on Monday, Aug. 20, she will be leading an eight-mile-long group walk from Old New Castle to the Riverfront in Wilmington via the Jack Markell Trail.
I quote from a press release from the Street Road Gallery:
"Carol's upcoming exhibition at Street Road, Walking Forward Looking Back, builds on material developed by the artist in part through the process of walking from her ancestral home on the Eastern Shore of Maryland through Delaware and to southern Chester County. This project is in part a process of addressing a family’s slave-owning past and is a meditation on the time, tempos and understandings walking can make space for."
Interested wanderers are asked to email Carol at cmaurer40@hotmail. Her show at the Street Road gallery (on Route 926 just west of Route 41) opens Sept. 15, with a reception from 1 to 5 p.m. Oct. 20.
