Curious and observant kids, join us for our new Nature Journaling Club for Kids this summer! Nature journaling can take the form of drawings, writing, notes, and more. We will see nature in a new way and grow our art and observation skills. We are not trying to create beautiful art, so there is no pressure on outcome.
This club is great for kids of all ages! We’ll provide prompts for each age group so everyone is working at a level they’re excited about and comfortable with.
We’ll provide paper, clip boards, pencils, erasers, colored pencils, and water color supplies. You can bring your own supplies or borrow ours! And you can take all of your art home.
Adults are required to stay with their child participants during club meet-ups. Registration is limited to 20 children (plus their adults), and limited to groups that are registering for children as part of their group.
