The Nature of Art – Children’s Art Class

June 3, 2026 @ 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm

Explore the connection between art and nature through youth art classes. Each week, we will focus on various natural themes and art mediums. Unleash your inner artist through youth art classes that explore the natural world. Each week, local artist Peaches Lukens will guide you through art projects using various mediums from watercolors to brush pens. We will investigate the beauty of nature through themes that focus on life ‘Under the Sea’ to ‘Over the Rainbow’. This class is an excellent add-on to the Nature Center’s summer camp, but students do not have to attend camp to participate in this class!

Limited to groups of up to 10 participants during this time. Participants limited to children ages 9 through 12.
