Discover the beauty and color of the flowers and plants in bloom at Planting Fields! This unique program invites children to immerse themselves in the vibrant world of blooming flowers and plants. Participants will embark on a creative journey through the Sensory Garden, using all their senses to connect with nature. With their own Nature Journal in hand, they’ll explore the beauty of the garden, sketching and drawing the flora around them. Plus, they’ll learn how to create breathtaking still life paintings inspired by the famous Georgia O’Keeffe!

This is more than just a class – it’s an opportunity to cultivate artistic skills while fostering a deeper connection with the natural world. At the end of the program, each child will leave with their very own Nature Journal, filled with botanical sketches, and a stunning floral painting to show off their new artistic abilities. It’s a colorful, creative adventure they won’t forget!
