The Witness Series Part 5: Building Community Through Observation

Yolanda Black Navarro Buffalo Bend Nature Park is a scenic park with restored wetlands and woodlands. This intimate 10-acre park is the perfect inspiration for nature journaling. Join artist Maverick and learn how to keep a nature journal in this calming environment. Nature journaling helps reduce stress and makes you a better observer, naturalist, and artist and opens a world of beauty and discovery. The Houston Audubon will provide tutorials on drawing birds found along Buffalo Bayou. A limited supply of journals and sketching pencils will be provided for participants. 

This park was named in memory of Yolanda Black Navarro, a committed civic leader from the East End who served Houston for decades. She founded the Association for the Advancement of Mexican Americans and received numerous accolades for her leadership in her community.  Attendees will learn more about her legacy, while learning to observe and capture details of what they see in nature.
