Saturday 8 June
Gardening Drawing Club
Let your creativity and love of nature entwine at this family-friendly art & gardening session hosted by Henley Library.
The Gardening Drawing Club has been developed by Johanna Tagada Hoffbeck, an artist whose gardening life nurtures her creative practice and whose life as an artist informs her horticulture journey. She seeks to share the joy and benefits of integrating both activities into one another at this workshop and will take you through the basics of growing organic vegetables and herbs, before you move on to paint and draw impressions from these encounters.
No art or gardening experience is necessary – this event is suitable for beginners and the most experienced alike. All organic seeds, veganic soil, pots, art supplies and plant-based painting materials will be provided!
