Dear friends,
I am part of the Burlington Master Naturalist Program. Sponsored by Burlington Parks and Rec, we are a cohort in the midst of a year long series of walks, workshops, learning, and inspiration about the nature of Burlington. A small group of us are putting on a series of workshops to help the community learn about Burlington through art. Workshops will teach different ways to celebrate place through art (drawing, photography, and writing). Workshop participants will be encouraged to use what they learn to produce a piece of artwork or writing to exhibit at a community art show at the South End Art Hop in September.
The workshops are free, and will be great fun! Come to one, two, or all! ALL AGES WELCOME - especially kids! And please, tell your friends and spread the word. We do ask that you pre-register by June 15th.
If you're interested, click the links below. Of course, let me know if you have any questions. Hope to see you at a workshop!
