Archive for the ‘Calendars’ Category

One of the most visited sections of the ArtPlantae website was the “Classes Near You” section where I listed classes and travel experiences related to botany, botanical art, and natural history art. When I turned my attention to my current project in 2018, this section featured learning opportunities in eleven countries and 34 U.S. states. I loved highlighting these opportunities and the artists and educators who led them.

Last week, I launched a resource similar to the “Classes Near You” section. This time, this resource is a Calendar of Opportunity for anyone leading conversations and experiences strengthening environmental awareness. This includes YOU and the way you facilitate connections between people and plants.
There are no costs involved in adding your workshop to the new calendar. The calendar lives on the Lu.ma platform. You will need a Luma account (this is also free). You retain control of your listing and your audience. To have your event appear on the new calendar, all you need to do is select the TALATERRA calendar when creating your event. By doing so, your event will populate the calendar automatically and appear alongside events created by other independent professionals and organizations too. After the date and time of your event pass, your listing is removed from the calendar automatically. Here are clear step-by-step directions and a couple of helpful images.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me here. Please mention the ArtPlantae website in your message. I look forward to learning about your classes and the conversations you are leading.

Artist Andie Thrams has created a new 2012 calendar reflecting her passion for creating art in wild places. Andie explains:

My 2012 IN FORESTS calendar reveals images from a collaborative project, “Cross-fertilization,” inspired by time I’ve spent in forests with my friend, collaborator and forest ecologist, Sarah Greene. The original work holds multiple layers of imagery, including drawing made with sticks and ink in wild forests, embedded maps and scientific data, and watercolor and gouache painting. Each IN FORESTS calendar is a careful archival digital reproduction of images from this project, printed with Epson UltraChrome K3 pigment ink on cotton rag paper, accordion-folded by hand and signed, all right here in my studio.

This new calendar is available in two sizes and can be purchased at Andie’s Etsy store.

Full-size Calendar
Opens to 7 1/2 x 36 inches and folds to 7 1/2 x 4 1/2 inches ($30).

Small Calendar
Opens to 4 1/8 x 19 inches and folds to 4 1/8 x 2 3/8 inches ($12).
