What our participants say
""Attending the nature journaling outing with fellow educators was an incredibly refreshing and inspiring experience. Being out in nature, taking the time to slow down, observe, sketch, and paint helped me reconnect with my own sense of curiosity and creativity. I came away with practical ideas for bringing nature journaling into the classroom and fostering deeper connections between students and the natural World.""
""The field sketching course with Sami and Imene captures all the beautiful aspects of learning and encourages everyone to see nature in a new way...to truly be in your surroundings and observe more intentionally the little things we often overlook in our busy days. I walked away ready to take my students outside and have them observe and capture their observations visually and in notes.""
"This was one of the best experiences that I have had as an educator in a long time. It was well organized, I learned a great deal, and left with enthusiasm as well as something practical that I can do with students. I am greatly looking forward to the next workshop!"
"Field sketching was a perfect opportunity to slow down and be immersed in the life and landscape of the California coast. So much beauty, movement, and stillness provided a wonderful scene for some close looking through sketching and note-taking. Sami is a wonderfully thoughtful and talented teacher and Imène is a welcoming host and organizer."
