About this Event
Explore, create, and connect in nature's boundless playground. Our curated day events are designed to immerse you in the beauty of nature while igniting your creative spark.
Join us for a zine making workshop where you will be given the tools and instructions to make your own zine inspired by nature and the birth of spring.
You will be taught how to make your own zine, create your own collages and cyanotype (light) print to incorporate into the zine.
This workshop is facilitated by Abike Ogunlokun. Abi is a mixed media artist and facilitator who’s work focuses on using art to connect with ourselves and those around us.
✨ You don’t need to “be good at art” to join – all you need is an openness and curiosity, you’re in the right place.

About Touch Grass
Touch Grass is an outdoor community for queer women, trans and non-binary people of colour.
We are committed to fostering community growth through outdoor gatherings and wellness-focused trips that encourage us to rekindle our relationship with nature. Our immersive experiences go beyond relaxation—it's about empowerment, wellness, and forging meaningful connections.
Our vision is for queer people of colour to see the outdoors as a space where we belong. A Natural England study found that white people are 70% more likely than Black and Asian people to spend time in the countryside. We want to change this. We deserve to reap the benefits of improved emotional well-being and physical health too.
We believe creativity and nature go hand in hand, which is why most of our events encourage you to embrace nature and your inner creative spirit.
