This three-part series of creative workshops is inspired by and focused on Burlington's natural landscapes. The 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. This series is coordinated through the Burlington Master Naturalist Program, sponsored by the Burlington's Department of Parks, Recreation, and Waterfront.

The workshops are free, and will be great fun! Pre-registration is required.
