Nature Art: Painting with Nature

  • West End Picnic Site 4501 Southwest Dr St. Louis, MO, 63110 United States (map)

Ever wondered how to make your own paint? Join the Missouri Department of Conservation for a hands-on lesson where we will turn berries, bark, leaves, and whatever else we can find into paint. You will learn how to get minerals from rocks and to get pigments out of the plants you see around you every day. Participants will make their own paint to use during the class and to take home.

We will meet at the West End Picnic Site, so it is best to enter from Kingshighway.

This class is designed for adults and/or families with older children due to safety. Please register EACH person who will be present.

All registrants for this event must be a minimum age of 8 years old.
