This event is part of our monthly “Nature on the Move” series with 15 Minute Field Trips, focusing on community action to protect wildlife, promote biodiversity, and combat climate change. Learn about local flora, fauna, and funga through art and science activities. Great for families or to use in the classroom. Check out the informative displays, make a craft, and get moving as we explore Blackstone Park.
The “Nature on the Move” series is led by our longtime collaborator Melissa Guillet, from 15 Minute Field Trips. Melissa has taught art for over 25 years and is an avid nature-lover involved in gardening, hiking, and collecting data as a citizen scientist.
