Join artist Allison Wilbur for a free monthly walk and Nature Journaling session. Our first session will take place on Monday, April 14, from 2 to 4 pm at Johannis Farm Wildlife Preserve.
Each month we will explore a different Land Trust property to improve our powers of observation and keep a record of the changing seasons.
You’ll be invited to share ideas on what to enter into your journal and encourage each other as you explore and document the natural world.
Each participant should bring their own journal and pens, pencils, watercolors or whatever supplies fit your practice. This group is focused on sharing of ideas and approaches (not artistic instruction).
This event is open to all ages (as long as children are accompanied by an adult).
In the event of rain, we will meet at the Residential Properties room on the second floor of the Barrington Public Library. Cindy Elder, Executive Director of the Land Trust, will share a slide show of Johannis Farm Wildlife Preserve. We can share any nature journals we have and talk about journaling ideas and techniques.
