Not just an ordinary paint night - this workshop will explore a specific plant species local to the Bow Valley in as much detail as possible.

We will start with a special guest speaker from The Biosphere Institute who will describe the importance of the highlighted plant based on where and how it grows, and what connections it has to other plants, fungi, and animal species. Artist Julia Knowlden will then lead participants through a step-by-step process to create a painting of the plant by looking at its unique properties through texture, colour, and shape. Beginners welcome!
