Birding and Drawing to Pathways of Observation
This event is no longer on sale.
Saturday February 10
10:00 AM  –  3:00 PM

Join us for a day at the garden exploring the connections between drawing and birding and learning how both activities can enhance your observation skills. We will demystify the drawing process and reframe it as just another tool for engaging with the world around us. We’ll also examine how bird-watching can be a great entry-point to understanding ecology and conservation. With the garden as our classroom, we will have ample opportunity to stretch our legs and skills through a series of outdoor drawing activities. All skill levels (of drawing and bird identification) are welcome, and we encourage participants to bring their curiosity and a willingness to try something new. Drawing supplies and binoculars will be provided, but participants are welcome to bring their own as well.
