(A new event at the 47th annual Elsie Quarterman Cedar Glade Festival. For info on the 3-day festival, see https://glade-center.mtsu.edu/)Channel your inner naturalist as we explore a variety of nature journaling techniques. Bring your favorite “totable” pens, paints, crayons, pencils, and journal.
All levels of experience -- with nature or with journaling -- are welcome!
Weather permitting, we will take a one-mile walk on a flat trail to examine our favorite spring cedar glade species.
Led by:
Mary Priestley, Sewanee Herbarium, author.
Joanna Brichetto, author of “This is How a Robin Drinks: Essays on Urban Nature.”
Kim Sadler, MTSU Center for Cedar Glade Studies.
Joanna Brichetto will also do a short, cedar-glade reading from "This is How a Robin Drinks" as one example of how a journal entry can grow into an essay. She'll have copies on hand to sell and sign.
Limestone cedar glades are globally unique and fragile habitats found primarily in Middle Tennessee. Viewed historically as wastelands, they support a plant community of highly specialized species, many of which are found nowhere else in the world.
Registration required, maximum of 24 participants. $5 fee.
