Let your artistic wings unfurl! Expand your sense of nature and adventure by creating art inspired by the outdoor world. We will explore the forest using the eyes of the artist.

With the tools of nature, we’ll create projects and objects that are expressions of our adventures. This fun-filled week combines nature-awareness games and activities with more in-depth art projects.
