What Toklat Taught Me: A 25-Year Journaling Practice
Artist talk with ACES April 2026 Wilderness Resident at Toklat Melissa Johnson
Experience the magic of the Castle Creek Valley through the eyes of artist and ACES’ Wilderness Resident at Toklat Melissa (Missy) Johnson. Join ACES for an evening of storytelling and art as Missy shares her illustrated residency journal—a month-long creative piece capturing Toklat’s natural wonders, culinary heritage, and legacy of simplicity, resilience, and stewardship.
The ACES Wilderness Residency at Toklat is designed to advance and share the work of one individual, working at the intersection of environmental challenges and artistic expression, offering them unencumbered time to think, work, and create in an inspirational setting. These four-week residences are situated at 9,500 feet in the historic Castle Creek Valley at the Catto Center at Toklat.
