Art & Nature for Neuro-Diverse Young People


*The event has already taken place on this date: Mon, 07/18/2022
As we create art, we learn to express how we feel and explore nature in a whole new way. Welcome to a fun, unique, and eco-friendly arts workshop where we will create art, perhaps walk a nature trail, share stories, and practice mindful self-care in nature! We will connect to nature, to fuel our creative expression by opening our senses & noticing more of the world around us. The workshop leader is a special education and fine arts, certified teacher.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

This workshop will be held at Pontiac Lakes State Recreation Area. We have a small cabin reserved, in case of inclement weather. There is electricity, heating, and cooling but no running water in the cabin. We have access to the campground’s modern restrooms. Please plan to spend time outdoors making art, and exploring this beautiful state park. A suggested outdoor gear list and more details about lunch (not included in the fee) will be emailed to each registrant.

The goal of this retreat is to help you relax, slow down and nourish your body, mind, and spirit with the gifts offered by Mother Earth and the Arts. No artistic experience is required.

The workshop leader is trained in expressive arts (for wellbeing) and is a state of Michigan certified fine arts and special education teacher. This is the third year she is offering these summer nature immersive experiences. 

We are offering three dates: Mondays June 20th, July 18th, and August 22nd. You don’t have to attend session 1 to attend session 2, as each will be uniquely designed with new projects and experiences. Spaces are limited so register soon. Please see our website for other options.
