Naturalist, photographer, herbalist and author Madison Woods will teach nature journaling at the Hobbs State Park Visitor Center on Sunday, Nov. 22, from 1 to 4 p.m.
Woods will lead the class on a voyage of listening, looking and feeling for connections that transport. The class will include an optional easy nature walk, a communing exercise, a discussion and practice of nature translation through words, art, and photography.
Woods is the author of 10 Common Plants worth Knowing (in a Long-term Survival Situation); American Ginseng & Companions; My Nature Journal; and several other titles. She writes a popular nature blog at www.wildozark.com.
Her goal is "to bridge the gap between people and the natural world, to remind readers that we are part of a larger whole, and to celebrate that all we see is not always all there is."
Cost for the workshop is $15. For more information and to register, visit www.villagewritingschool.com or phone 479-292-3665.
