Step into nature and rediscover your creative flow. Guided by artist and Certified Nature & Forest Therapy Guide Debby Singleton, participants will experience a four-hour sensory immersion around the beautiful environs of Thoreson Farm. Inspired by the research-based practice of forest bathing, this workshop invites you to slow down, walk mindfully, observe closely, and connect deeply with your surroundings. Through sketching, journaling, and creating with found natural materials and provided art supplies, you’ll explore how nature nurtures creativity and calm. The experience concludes with a peaceful tea ceremony, a moment to reflect and share. Join us to relax, connect, and let nature inspire your artistic spirit.
