Workshop II: Make Your Own Natural Paintbox — Saturday, July 18

Workshop III: Walnut Ink Still Life with Vermont Stones — Saturday, August 15

Join us for a series of three nature-inspired classes designed for adults and youth ages 12 and up. These hour-and-a-half workshops will focus on the use of natural materials and the skill of close observation, a vital gift of drawing from life, which connects the visual arts with the sciences. Throughout these workshops, the emphasis is on learning how to see the natural world through a new lens. Drawing from observation and using local materials will foster a deeper connection between art and science while contributing to the understanding of our local environment.

Participants are welcome to attend one or all workshops, and all sessions are free.

Registration is required. Please register online or contact the Circulation Desk (in person, 802-254-5290, circ@brookslibraryvt.org).
