Plants and Pigments Workshop - College Lake, Thursday 24 September

Join Lisa from 'Growing Bright' for one of her monthly craft sessions using natural materials. Join Lisa from Growing Bright who will take you on a short, guided walk around our woodland area and help you identify six specimens of your choice. You will then use these leaves, flowers and berries, to create a colourful grid on paper. This will be the base on which you will sketch your specimens as well as identify and label them. By connecting with nature in this way, you are sure to go home remembering the names of at least 6 plants and you will have your beautiful artwork as a reference for the future! This is a part of our monthly Natural Craft workshops; each month a different craft to give you the opportunity to take part in some mindful creativity. Lisa from 'Growing Bright' will encourage you to slow down and gain inspiration from nature whilst making something beautiful to take home. Enjoy a relaxing couple of hours and bring out your inner artist. These workshops are for beginners and anyone looking to slow down.
