Walking with the Prairie: A Creative Workshop

The Friends of Ledges and the Iowa Field Guides Project presents "Walking with the Prairie: A Creative Workshop." This free event begins with making a pocket-sized nature journal or assembling a prairie-themed coloring book. Then, around 10:30, take a guided tour of the prairie at Ledges State Park. Finish with an opportunity to reflect and create a piece of writing or art in your journal.

Whether you're a prairie enthusiast or just looking to get out for the morning, come join us! All are welcome! Our journal making, coloring book, and prairie walk will be fun for all ages. Our final activity will be geared more toward adult participants. Led by local naturalist Danielle Wirth, park neighbor Nan Bonfils, and writer Amie Adams.

Saturday, September 13: 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Location: Upper Prairie at Ledges State Park. Not far from the main park entrance.

Bring: notebook, pen, water, sun and insect protection. Optional: binoculars

Wear: long pants, closed toed toes, light long sleeves (optional), hat
