Summer 2026 Plant a Seed, Read: Nature Journaling Workshop

You are invited to unplug and reconnect with nature through this creative, interactive nature journaling workshop. Using simple playful sketching and writing prompts, you’ll slow down, notice more deeply, and strengthen your observation skills as you explore the natural world in your own way. No art, writing, or science experience is needed—this is about connection, curiosity, and wonder, not perfection. This practice offers a gentle way to restore attention, deepen your relationship with place, and rediscover the calm and insight that come from truly noticing. All supplies will be provided! This event is for adults ages 18+ and is first come, first served, and limited to the first 30 attendees! All supplies will be provided. Due to the popularity of this program, we are limiting attendance to one session per person across all library locations. For accessibility accommodations (ex.
