Connecting with Nature through the arts can help develop awareness into action, bringing the urgent message of climate emergency to a broader audience in powerful and creative ways.
NRN Wild Arts built on the success of workshops I organised for the Nature Recovery Network (NRN) in collaboration with Catriona Bass of The Thames Valley Wildflower Meadow Restoration Project.
Combining artistic and scientific learning about local habitats and ecologies under the guidance of local field specialist, conservation experts and professional artists NRN Wild Arts aims to develop awareness into action, bringing the urgent message of climate emergency to a broader audience in powerful and creative ways.
NRN Wild Arts was made possible through funding and support of Natural England.
