Botanical Illustrators Teaching Future Generations

April 5, 2010 by Tania Marien

National Environmental Education Week begins on Sunday, April 11th. Special articles and learning opportunities will be coming your way. Please tell friends, students, teachers, and your favorite naturalist about the activities here at ArtPlantae and at EEWeek.org.

Here are more hints about what is to come during EE Week at ArtPlantae:

  • Contemporary botanical artists follow in the footsteps of their predecessors and document plants for future generations.
  • What’s happening at the 10th largest herbarium in the United States?
  • See what a rain garden is doing for a major public garden.
  • How did an East Coast artist capture California’s desert plants?
  • A scientific illustrator provides suggestions and answers your questions about connecting kids with nature through drawing.

Have you signed up to the RSS feed to receive daily updates during EE Week?

EE Week at ArtPlantae begins to materialize on Thursday. See you then!
