Tap into your creativity with a playful, process-based workshop that blends nature journaling and zine-making. Through drawing, writing, collage, and simple bookmaking techniques, you’ll explore the natural world around you and discover new ways to express what you observe and feel. This workshop celebrates experimentation over perfection — mistakes are not only welcome, they’re part of the magic. Whether you consider yourself an artist or not, you’ll find joy in creating without pressure, connecting with nature, and turning your reflections into a one-of-a-kind zine to take home. All levels welcome — because everyone is creative.
