The Nature of Play invites participants to explore Nature Journaling through a gentle and playful lens of well-being. 

Making nature brushes, using plant pigments and creating a collaborative artwork are all part of the fun.

The Nature of Play will build on skills and techniques learned in the ‘Introduction to Nature Journaling’ workshops.

Light morning refreshments, a hardcover water colour journal, pen and pencil is included in the cost of the workshop.

The Nature of Play is part of the Botanic Garden's Nature Journaling series.  Nature journaling is for anyone who would like to deepen their relationship with both nature and self.
