Miss Celie's Garden & the Botany of 'The Color Purple'
Description:
In this engaging webinar, we embark on a captivating exploration of the botanical themes intricately woven throughout Alice Walker's timeless novel, "The Color Purple." These themes transcend mere literary motifs as they play a profound, symbolic role, deepening the narrative's emotional texture. Through a quiz-style format, participants will test their understanding and knowledge as they immerse themselves in the rich botanical tapestry of the novel. By the end of this webinar, participants will not only have gained a profound understanding of how botanical themes in "The Color Purple" enrich the narrative, emphasizing growth, transformation, and self-discovery but also be inspired to draw upon these themes to create gardens that reflect the beauty of personal journeys and the resilience of the human spirit.
