- **Event Name**: Creating an Illustrated Field Journal
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 14 Aug, 2026 at 11:00 am – Fri, 14 Aug, 2026 at 01:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The seasonal changes in the natural world can often be overlooked when we don’t take the time to look closely at what is around us. By keeping an illustrated field journal, we can record not only our thoughts, but sketch and draw what we see, creating meaningful pages through the use of word and image.

Using the beautiful 577 grounds for inspiration, new participants in this outdoor class will be introduced to the concept of keeping this type of journal and will create their first entry, hopefully inspiring them to carry on and fill the remaining pages over time. Experienced students also welcome--learn new tips, gain fresh inspiration in the ever changing seasons, and build upon past lessons. No writing or drawing experience is necessary, only the desire to have some fun while exploring the natural world around us.

Please bring these supplies:
- any blank, unlined journal of your choice
- a favorite pen
- #2 pencil
- basic set of colored pencils
- any leaves, twigs, or natural elements you'd like to draw

*Please note: In the event of bad weather, class will move inside to Virginia's Library.
