Are you a creative mind itching to make your mark in the world? Do you have a drive to see and create beautiful artwork with and in the natural world? If so, this event is for you!
This event will focus on teaching Girl Scouts how to express their ideas through art either made from nature itself or depicting various nature themes. We will explore different ways to incorporate natural materials into your artwork as well as ways to recreate nature in various mediums.
While some of the weekend will be offering ways to learn you will also get time to create a art installation that will be displayed at camp's art gallery!
