Do you feel like you need a moment of pause and a deeper connection with nature? Join us on the first Saturday of each month for a free nature journaling workshop, as part of our Peace In Nature series. The 90-minute workshop helps you start or expand your nature journaling practice, providing you with ecological context, thematic prompts and time to journal.

This month’s theme, “Winter Buds & Branches”, invites you to closely observe plants and trees as they wait out the cold and slowly ready themselves for spring. This workshop meets at the Park offices at 334 Furman St (near Pier 5) and will be mixed both indoor and outdoor, please dress accordingly.

This series is intended for adults, but all are welcome. Materials are provided on a first-come, first-served basis, but we encourage you to bring your own materials and journals if you have them. This event is first come, first serve, with 20 total spots available. Advance registration encouraged but not required.
