(2 PDPs) Discover how simple marks can spark big creativity! In this outdoor workshop, we’ll explore the power of mark-making as a tool for self-expression, motor skill development, and creative exploration in children. Surrounded by nature, participants will engage in drawing activities, demonstrations, and playful games using a wide variety of accessible materials. No experience necessary—just a curiosity for the creative process and the natural world! (2 PDPs)
