| Monthly Newsletter: January 2023 We hope your year is filled with adventures! Exciting things around the corner... Attention Adults! Come out on February 2nd, 2023 from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. and enjoy an evening of mixed media art and relaxing fun at Rock Hollow Woods. In this class, we will learn about the basics of art journaling and mixed media art. We will explore with paints, stencils, stamping, and layering to create dynamic and interesting pieces of art. We will use a simple bookbinding technique to create our own mini art journals as well as create at least one piece of art (more if time permits). Register for Mixed Media for Adults today! This class is geared towards beginners in mixed media, but all skill levels are welcome. **This session is BYO. Feel free to bring your own beverages (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) and snacks to enjoy. Our After-school Adventurers Nature Club & Homeschool Happenings programs are offered again in 2023. Give your child an authentic nature immersion experience! CLICK HERE for more information and to register today! Toddler Time on the Trail; 9:30-11:00 a.m. Check out the schedule for our Toddler Time on the Trail program. Interacting with natural environments allows children to learn by doing and experiment with ideas. In nature, children think, question, and make hypotheses which helps to develop inquisitive minds. Whether they’re judging the distance between two rocks before jumping or considering where insects go in the winter, children are constantly thinking when they’re in nature. These experiences offer real, authentic learning like nothing else can. As children take risks, try and fail, and try again, they gain resilience and confidence. Sign up today as these spots get filled quickly! 2023 Summer Camp registration opens on February 1st! Rock Hollow Woods' Memberships Available! A perfect way to welcome 2023 is to get a Rock Hollow Woods' Membership! This membership is your passport to authentic nature experiences right here at Rock Hollow Woods!
