Learn how to record and sketch the world around you.

This is an in-person program. Registration is required.

What To ExpectCuriosity, wonder, attention all are part of nature journaling. In this workshop, Lee Kellogg will introduce you to the three elements that all of us have inside of us that makes nature journaling so fun. Explore the natural world around the library as you learn how to record and sketch, then around your home afterwards. As you gain confidence venture into the near by forests or lakes to expand your skills.

Basic skills of drawing, question asking and observing will be covered. No drawing skills needed! Materials for getting started will be provided and you will leave with a small nature journal to continue your work. Nature Journaling is accessible to anyone, at any age and ability. Time and weather permitting we will spend some time outside practicing our new skills.
