Slow down and notice more - Grow creativity and mindfulness - Create a personal record of the seasons

 

 

Nature journaling is a gentle, creative practice of exploring the natural world through drawing, writing, and slowing down to look more closely — deepening our connection with nature and ourselves. Create your own journal pages and leave with simple, inspiring ways to continue exploring and noticing the natural world.

 

 

Join artist Debbie Kersley for creative nature journaling workshops immersed among the trees. These small group workshops take place at the Community Shelter in Silk Wood, which is approx a 20 minute walk from the Welcome Building. The sheltered outdoor space allows us to settle into the environment, observe closely and enjoy a slower pace of creative exploration, whilst learning practical ways to journal outdoors.

 

These workshops invite you to slow down, notice more deeply, and experience the arboretum from a different perspective.

By moving between the wider presence of trees in the landscape and the smaller details, nature journaling is a creative way of exploring and remembering the places we visit.

You don’t need to be ‘good’ at drawing to enjoy nature journaling — curiosity and noticing are much more important than artistic skill. Through simple, enjoyable step-by-step exercises and guidance, we will explore drawing as a way of seeing more closely. All levels of experience are very welcome.

Bring your own lunch to enjoy surrounded by woodland. Hot drinks and art materials are provided.

Discounts are available for booking more than one workshop, or booking together with friends.

Time: 11:00 – 15:30
Concession £50 | Standard £70 | Supporter £90
Next workshop: Monday 18th May
