Field notes
The page turns the proposed schedule into a hundred-square grid: thirty squares are reserved for hosted activities, while visitors can click the remaining seventy. A three-question quiz suggests one of two tracks—bring a stalled project or arrive without one—and says participants may switch on day three. The proposed week includes a morning workshop, an optional walk, and a nightly salon; the page identifies Endicott College’s Manninen Center for the Arts as the setting.
