Add to Calendar 2026-03-09 18:00:00 2026-03-09 19:15:00 America/New_York Life Lab: Rediscover Nature with Nature Journaling Join us to learn more about nature journaling to develop a deeper connection with nature. Southeast Regional - Room C

Join us to learn more about nature journaling to develop a deeper connection with nature.

Nature journaling is a way to develop a deeper connection with nature, increase curiosity, and develop observational skills. It is also a meditative practice that allows the "journaler" to be more mindful, which helps to reduce anxiety and stress.  And best of all, you do not have to be an artist, poet, or scientist to enjoy this practice.  During this workshop, you will:

- Learn the Nature Journaling basics
- See journal entry examples
- Become familiar with some famous nature journalists
- Explore various prompts to get you started
- Learn how you can become a “citizen scientist” through nature journaling.
- Try your hand at nature journaling

Some materials will be provided, but feel free to bring your own art supplies (a notebook or journal, pens, colored pencils, and watercolors). We will do an exercise outside (weather permitting).

Register to save your seat. Registration must be completed two hours prior to the start time. A library card and PIN are required for registration. If you do not have a card, click HERE to obtain one.

All registered seats will be forfeited at 5 minutes before the program start time and made available to waitlisted and walk-in attendees. Registered attendees arriving after this time will be seated if seats are available.

Pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act, accommodations for persons with disabilities are available upon request. Please allow 1–2 business days to process. Last-minute requests will be accepted, but may not be possible to fulfill. Please ask for Learning Services at (904) 255-2665 or email JPLPrograms@coj.net.
