SUMMARY:Intermediate Botany
DESCRIPTION:Join Dr. Douglas DeBerry for an in-depth overview of the tools and techniques used by botanists to identify plants to the species level\, with a strong emphasis on family characteristics. Attendees will be exposed to concepts in plant classification\, nomenclature\, habitat\, distribution\, and of course\, vegetative and reproductive characteristics—all of which can be used to help identify plants to the species level. Emphasis is on native or naturalized species in Virginia and the use of dichotomous keys in technical plant manuals and regional floras. An important focus of the course will be on empowering attendees to “dismantle” the seemingly endless complex of scientific terminology surrounding plant identification. This course will include a mix of time for lectures\, labs\, and field practicums. Attendees should be prepared for some fieldwork homework assignments. \nFees: Member: $220\, Non-Member: $264 \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:Honoring the Light - and how it reflects on different surfaces
DESCRIPTION:This workshop aims to convey a system of observation of light and shade that addresses this complex issue with simple procedures. We begin by restricting our focus merely to the absolute qualities of light and shade in their extreme values. Thus\, the brightest highlight is recognized at first\, and everything else is left aside for a while. Once we identify its tonal value\, be it purely white or not\, the absolute quality of the highlight is determined\, and then it must become the parameter for representing all else. As we progress with the work\, the need for constant comparison of tonal values is fundamental until we establish the absolute quality of the darkest shade as well. From that point on\, it becomes easier to decipher and render the values of secondary lights\, midtones\, and reflections\, with all their obvious or subtle nuances. \nIn this course\, you will:\nDiscover the magic and complexity of light\, and improve your ‘artistic eye’;\nEnhance your ability to observe and represent different luminosities of light;\nUtilize the full spectrum of light’s qualities and learn to express its atmosphere;\nUnderstand how various surfaces reflect the light differently\, and can even transmit tactile sensation;\nExamine a variety of qualities of light phenomena\, like translucency and metallic reflections\, including the depiction of waterdrops;\nLearn to perceive subtle variations and specific types of transitions of values;\nInvestigate and accurately represent highlights\, midtones\, shadows\, and reflections;\nMake your drawings more dynamic by adding depth\, volume\, and dimension;\nGet inspired to create captivating realistic images by deeply learning about light’s nuances. \nThis virtual course is led by renowned international artist Rogério Lupo. Recordings of each class will be permanently available to students. \nFees: Member $185\, Non-Member $222 \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:Illustrating Pollinators for Botanical Art: Butterflies
DESCRIPTION:A Three-Day Intensive Workshop on the Form and Function of Butterflies \nThis workshop is designed to deepen your understanding of butterflies beyond basic anatomy. Rather than simply identifying the head\, thorax\, and abdomen\, we’ll explore how leg structures\, mouthparts\, and flight patterns reveal a butterfly’s purpose\, personality\, and ecological role. By studying the epitome of form and function\, artists will gain insight into how these elements create life in motion. \nOver three intensive days\, we’ll blend structured instruction\, guided observation\, and hands-on drawing exercises to develop both technical skill and scientific understanding. Instead of rushing to complete a portfolio-ready piece\, you’ll create a meaningful\, well-designed observational record that serves as a foundation for future work. \nKey Learning Components:\n✔ Live Demonstrations & Guided Instruction – Learn structured methods for drawing butterflies accurately and scientifically.\n✔ Hands-On Drawing & Observation – Apply concepts directly through structured drawing exercises.\n✔ Scientific Pinning & Preservation – Learn techniques for preparing specimens for study and reference.\n✔ Group Discussions & Inquiry-Based Exploration – Strengthen your ability to interpret form and function through critical thinking. \nThis class bridges visual art\, science\, and ecology\, guiding botanical artists to illustrate not just the beauty of nature\, but its deeper purpose—capturing form\, function\, and the interconnected roles of pollinators through careful observation and mark-making. \n See class supply list below. \n\nThis class has been cancelled. \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.

SUMMARY:The Power of Pollinators
DESCRIPTION:Pollinators and their choices have a powerful impact on our local ecosystem. They pick which flowers to pollinate\, therefore deciding which plants get to form a fruit with seeds and reproduce. Without pollinators\, entire terrestrial food webs and ecosystems would collapse. Fortunately\, there is still a lot we can do to protect and support the pollinators. In this class\, we will foster a love and appreciation for our pollinating friends. We will discuss various methods to support local wildlife by supporting pollinators and the overall food web. Participants will each receive a special mix of native plant seeds collected from Clara’s garden so they can start or add on to a pollinator garden at home! Come learn how to make a positive difference in the natural world with like-minded individuals! \nThis class has been cancelled. \nAll programs are subject to change.

SUMMARY:America the Beautiful
DESCRIPTION:In Loving Memory\n(1952–2025)\n“Be grateful—every day\, no matter what you face.” \nJourney through the remarkable life and inspiring art of Anh-Van Truong. Born in Vietnam in 1952\, Anh-Van endured unimaginable hardships—fleeing her homeland after the 1975 Communist takeover\, surviving multiple failed escape attempts\, and finally reaching freedom by boat with only a 3% chance of survival. After a year and a half in a Philippine refugee camp\, where she served as a UN interpreter\, she resettled in Canada and later made the U.S. her permanent home in 1983. \nA scholar of French literature and lifelong lover of painting\, Anh-Van worked with international embassies and raised three children\, honoring her heritage while embracing her new home. In her final years\, while battling stage 4 gastric cancer\, she returned to her first passion with America the Beautiful\, a moving exhibition that celebrated the spirit of each U.S. state and the people who call it home. Through every brushstroke\, Anh-Van expressed her gratitude\, resilience\, and deep love for the country that gave her a second chance.  \nThis exhibition will be on display in the Robins Visitor Center.
