ArtPlantae is excited to participate as a national partner in National Environmental Education Week (EE Week). Blending the theme for EE Week (Be Water and Energy Wise) with botany and botanical art education has been a rewarding experience. So many people have given their time to participate in the event. There will be so much to learn!
Here is a hint of what is to come during EE Week at ArtPlantae:
- Learn how one city involves its residents in water conservation activities and how both the city and residents teach others about the importance of water conservation.
- Learn how an illustrator partnered with habitat restoration experts to restore habitat and create an illustration garden.
- Does your school have a schoolyard garden? You’ll want to know about this practical tool.
- Learn how a rain garden benefits the ocean and connects people with plants and their food.
- Read how a natural science educator created a series of books about ecosystems.
- Teachers, have you been looking for a way to incorporate nature drawing into your lesson plans? There are workbooks you’ll want to see!
- Learn how an illustrator has created a venue to teach botany and botanical art from the ground, up.
EE Week is just around the corner!
