Description
“In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks.” ~John Muir
Become an “Art-ologist” at Hopewell Culture National Historical Park. Join us as we walk the trail around Mound City Group looking carefully at the unique beauty of the fall nature, learn real observation skills and reflect on the life of the people who lived here 2,000 years ago.
Students will learn how to make a collection of botanical sketches and create their first “botanical journal.” Our park volunteer, artist Pam Ballard, will facilitate this new art program teaching students drawing skills such as shapes, shading, perspective, and other important artistic details. No prior art experience is required and all levels are invited to participate.
