We improvise a lot, and that is very fun.” ‑Henry, age 9

In Weaving Wilderness, we blend together the worlds of nature and crafting! Children that register for this class partake in expeditions to local parks to learn about native plants, insects and animals through the changing seasons. Back in the classroom, we construct functional and fantastical creations inspired by fall and the beginning of winter. Empower your child to learn and create with the natural world around them, sign up today!
