“The benefit of journaling is not limited to what you produce, .. rather , found in your experience and how you think along the way.” (John Muir Laws, 2016)
You do not need to be “an artist” to nature journal. All you need is curiosity.
This session will explore Autumn using all our senses.
Come see, hear, smell, taste, touch and feel Autumn at Eskbank House Museum
