Nature Journaling and the Art of Observation

In this three-hour class, the instructor guides attendees in developing a practice of nature journaling, using words and sketches to record observations, reflections and questions about nature.

Attendees start in the Folk School classroom with time to share their interests, goals and ideas for what to include in a nature journal. And then move outdoors to make observations and record them in their journals. Attendees finish with time together to share observations, questions and resources. If weather is unfavorable for outdoor exploration, the class will bring nature indoors for the observation time.
