Nature Detectives: Art & Discovery Workshop

Join artist Emma Read from Miniritchi Gallery for a hands-on creative workshop designed especially for curious young minds.

Nature Detectives invites children to explore the natural world through both art and science, using observation, drawing, and photography to uncover the hidden details in everyday objects.

Participants will investigate natural specimens such as feathers, leaves, shells, and other found treasures. Using magnifying tools and digital cameras, they’ll learn how to look closely, ask questions, and document what they see - just like both artists and scientists do.

Throughout the session, children will:

• Develop observation and drawing skills
