SUMMARY:Introduction to Nature Journaling
DESCRIPTION:It doesn’t matter where you live–in a city\, the country\, or a suburb–there is always something beautiful that surrounds you. You just have to begin to notice it! Nature journaling helps you slow down\, let go of the never-ending tasks on your to-do list\, focus on the natural beauty of the world\, and find a peaceful place within (even for just a moment). Using words\, drawings\, numbers\, pictures\, and even colors\, nature journals document your experiences. You don’t have to be an artist\, a writer\, or a gardener to journal about the natural world. Experience nature journaling for yourself! Join Stephey Baker\, local artist and avid urban gardener for bumble bees\, as she guides you step-by-step in creating a nature journal unique to you. Journaling in nature improves observation skills and memory\, engages your five senses\, decreases your blood pressure\, and allows you to discover something new every day. Through this course\, you can make a nature journal just for yourself\, or share the beauty and wonder of nature with someone special by taking the class together with them. \nOur Garden continues to follow CDC recommendations and state guidelines for preventing the spread of COVID-19. Properly worn masks are strongly encouraged for indoor class participants regardless of vaccination status. The Garden reserves the right to implement additional safety measures. Any updates will be communicated prior to class\, if possible. \nAll programs are subject to change.

SUMMARY:Vibrant Visions with Water Soluble Oil Pastels
DESCRIPTION:This two day workshop is about being inspired to create your own images of light\, color\, and beauty; along with experiencing the pure joy of playing with art media. I will lead you through the process of “painting” vibrant\, expressive\, works of art. Liquid watercolor provides brilliant colors to use as an underpainting. Water soluble oil pastels offer artists vivid colors with the consistency of oil pastels. Whatever you put down a surface can then be manipulated further with water and a few good brushes. This is a class designed for anyone at any skill level. There are no wrong answers! Try something new for the pure fun of it all! \nOur Garden continues to follow CDC recommendations and state guidelines for preventing the spread of COVID-19. Properly worn masks are strongly recommended for indoor class participants regardless of vaccination status. The Garden reserves the right to implement additional safety measures.

SUMMARY:Color Mixing for Botanical Illustration
DESCRIPTION:It can seem watercolor painting needs only water + watercolor paint. Mix them together\, apply to paper with a brush and voila! It’s not quite that simple. It is essential for watercolor artists to observe and recreate the highlights\, mid-tones\, and shadows of specimens in a variety of hues and values. The ability to manipulate the medium and utilize materials (think: water\, pigment\, paper\, brush) is essential as a watercolorist. Color theory and basic watercolor painting techniques are introduced through hands-on exercises\, including creating color gradients\, painting a basic color wheel and its grayscale counterpart\, and creating basic forms using fruits and vegetables. Along with practicing in class\, students must also practice on their own each week. The amount of time spent improving skills outside of class is up to students. For class requirements to be met\, students must complete all projects and demonstrate basic skills in the medium. Guidelines will be provided for students to follow. In between classes\, students receive support through an online classroom. Students can post their work\, ask questions\, receive feedback from instructors and peers\, review lessons via video\, and access a comprehensive color library. Creative processes that deliver results\, color matching accuracy\, and experimentation are emphasized. In a relaxed and inspiring atmosphere\, Stephey Baker will guide you through group exercises and creative discussions. \nSome materials are provided. Click on the link below for additional required materials. \nFees: Member $201\, Non-Member $235 \nAll programs are subject to change. Pre-registration through our website is required. \nLewis Ginter Botanical Garden strives to be a Garden for all and we are committed to offering diverse adult learning opportunities that are inclusive and accessible to all learners. If you would like to request an accommodation to support your participation in an adult learning opportunity at the Garden\, please contact meganc@lewisginter.org or call 804-262-9887 x320 and we will make our best effort to help.

SUMMARY:Voice: The Language of Flowers
DESCRIPTION:Floriography\, or the language of flowers\, is the covert expression of one’s feelings through flowers and flower arrangement. Although this practice has been in place for thousands of years in Europe\, Asia\, and Africa\, it is closely associated with England’s Victorian Era. Messages and feelings were expressed through the language of flowers in gifts of small bouquets\, called tussie-mussies. Using the Garden as inspiration\, we will explore the language of flowers and find our own voice within the world of plants\, creating our own tussie-mussie to express our thoughts and feelings. This class is a part of the Lessons through Nature series with Sarah Croscutt. \nOur Garden continues to follow CDC recommendations and state guidelines for preventing the spread of COVID-19. Properly worn masks are strongly encouraged for indoor class participants regardless of vaccination status. The Garden reserves the right to implement additional safety measures. Any updates will be communicated prior to class\, if possible. \nAll programs are subject to change.

SUMMARY:Springtime in Virginia - April 5
DESCRIPTION:In early March\, spring creeps in. Fruit trees and witch hazels bloom on bare limbs and early bulbs emerge among the leaves. By April\, daffodils\, tulips and bluebells color the ground while viburnum and redbuds paint the canopy above. The blazing colors of rhododendrons and azaleas fill the space between. With warming weather\, peonies\, iris and roses emerge. Learn what makes “A Million Blooms” possible and how the Garden changes\, including the brief appearance of ephemerals. Acquire information about perennials recommended for beginning gardeners with small spaces.

SUMMARY:One Native Chef's Journey to Cultural Culinary Discovery and Understanding
DESCRIPTION:Join Chef Joe Rocchi as he discusses how his passion to discover a buried history of native culinary traditions brought him to a life changing journey of learning\, understanding\, and sharing the immense beauty\, contributions\, and sometimes dark history of the cuisines native to the Americas. A cuisine whose indigenous ingredients have literally changed the way the entire world sustains itself\, has had virtually no culinary representation here on native land in America\, nor the world at large\, having been intentionally buried. Explore food sovereignty\, generational knowledge\, colonization\, Indian boarding schools\, food sources used as a weapon to control the indigenous people of this land\, food related illnesses among the indigenous population (diabetes\, heart disease\, etc.)\, the journey of rediscovery and the best new restaurant in the country focusing on only precolonial indigenous foods. Learn about native ingredients and where to source them\, take away some recipes using those ingredients and join Chef Joe for a demonstration and tasting of fry bread.
