Nature journaling is the practice of drawing and note-taking in response to nature. Through close observation, we notice details we may not have seen, we may record things we might have forgotten, and we improve our recognition and appreciation of different plant and animal species.
This workshop, led by science illustrator Rebecca Jabs, involves active outdoor participation. Following an introduction to the activity by the instructor, participants will record observations through sketching and note-taking. Participants will look for inspiration in the natural areas in the vicinity of the Nature Center.
Supplies and paper will be provided for the workshop, but feel free to bring your favorite supplies and a sketchbook if you have one. It is highly recommended for participants to bring a brimmed hat/baseball cap, sunscreen, and a foldable camp chair. Dress for the weather.
Registration is required by September 7th. In the event of rain, the event will be postponed to September 21st.
Cost: $25 per adult.
If middle school/high school aged students want to participate and adult must also attend and purchase a ticket.
There are no refunds for cancellations; substitutes are permitted. Refunds will be issued for programs cancelled by Bubolz due to low registration.

Prior to attending Into the Canyon: Exploring a National Treasure with Pete McBride and Kevin Fedarko at the PAC, enjoy a special Ecology Walk at the Bubolz Nature Preserve calling attention to the human impact on the environment. While the differences between the habitats and biological communities of the Grand Canyon that Pete and Kevin explored are vast, the very real threat to all habitats and communities around the country due to human behavior is a crucial, common tie. Space is limited on each walk and registration is required. This event is free with community support from Community First Credit Union.
