Journalling what we see, not what we think we see, enables us to gain a deeper connection to our surroundings, promoting curiosity and well-being.

In the two hours, we will be walking in Wardens' Wood with sit stops to draw what we see, smell, hear… Our aim is not to create a masterpiece but to enhance our connection to nature through the medium of drawing.

Suitable for ages 10 years to adult, a lovely activity for you to do alongside your child and suitable for all abilities.

Basic drawing materials are provided - a pad and drawing pen, which you can take home after to hopefully continue your journalling journey - but feel free to bring along coloured pencils/camera if you have them but NOT essential.  

You will be guided by local illustrator/printmaker Amanda Steer.
