Outdoor Art invites participants to slow down, observe, and connect with the natural world through close-up drawing and artistic exploration. Led by Nikoline Bohr, this outdoor art experience focuses on the intricate details of nature—textures, shapes, colors, and patterns often overlooked in everyday life. Rather than capturing sweeping landscapes, participants will study the beauty found in leaves, flowers, shells, insects, and other small natural wonders up close. Set against the lush backdrop of Nantucket, this class encourages curiosity, mindfulness, and creativity while introducing techniques in observational drawing and nature journaling. Whether you are new to art or have years of experience, this relaxed and engaging program offers a unique way to experience Nantucket through a creative lens.

This program is designed to be interesting for adults. This program meets at the MMA Outdoor Classroom at 33 Washington St. Nantucket MA. Pre-registration is required and registration closes at 3pm the day before the program. Materials are provided.

Cost Per Participant: $40
