Open Spaces Nature Art Workshop with Megan Gallant
Lakeside Nature Center
Bring the kids for a fabulous hour in the garden, the woods and the art studio with multimedia artist, Megan Gallant! All ages can register and join in, but kids are especially welcomed to this 1-hour experience gathering pigments and colors in nature and creating an artwork with them! The studio space at Lakeside Nature Center is the perfect place to bring Nature and Art together, and the fall flowers and leaves will be at their finest for this workshop!
