The Cambridge University Botanic Garden has announced its schedule of classes for 2012. The new schedule includes 14 classes about botanical art. The Garden says their botanical art classes fill up very quickly. If you plan to attend one of their classes, don’t wait too long to register.

A new class about designing illuminated letters has been added to the botanical art program. This class will be taught by Georita Harriott.
