This will be our yearly winter trip to the UW Geology Museum! If you've journaled here before you know that there are endless specimens packed into this small university space. I'll never get bored of journaling here. Gems and jewels, ancient water life, ancient land life, and a few huge skeletons of dinosaurs, a mastodon, and an ancient "armadillo." TIMING NOTE: Club events will normally be held during the last weekend of every month, but my December schedule was tricky sorry. This event is also in the morning instead of the afternoon because the museum has limited hours.

DETAILS:
- PARKING: the nearest parking lot is Lot 80 (beneath Union South)
- MEETING SPOT: Meet in the lobby near the coat rack/bathrooms. It's a small lobby so just look for people with sketchbooks.
- SEATS: You can request a seat from the museum, or bring a sketching stool. There are no benches.
- BATHROOM: yes
- ACCESSIBILITY: the museum is wheelchair accessible. The nearest parking garage is about two blocks away.
- WHO SHOULD COME: this is for all ages. No art experience necessary! If you like writing more than sketching that's also a great place to start.

WHAT IS NATURE JOURNALING?
Nature journaling is more than drawing or painting pictures--we also write questions and notes in our sketchbooks to wonder more deeply about nature. We’ll talk briefly about ideas of what to write, such as the writing prompts "I notice... I wonder... It reminds me of..." You'll also get some nature journaling tips about ways you could document things that you may see at the event location.
