Early natural historians explored their immediate world by not only collecting specimens, but also through careful observation and drawing. This workshop explores the practice of drawing as observation and “deep engagement” with our environment, nurturing valuable connection with and knowledge of the wild in the city. We also consider drawing as research method. Offered in partnership with the Stanley Park Ecology Society.
Village engages individuals, neighbourhoods & organizations to take actions that build sustainable communities & have fun doing it. Join us!

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.
