Nature Journaling On the Agenda June 27
Frankfort, Kentucky - Join naturalist and artist Roberta Burnes for an afternoon of nature observation, writing and sketching from 1 - 4 p.m. Saturday, June 27.

This workshop is for anyone wanting to find a style in nature journaling. You don't have to be an artist to observe and record the natural world around you. Burnes will explore different techniques and exercises that will help anyone get started. We will provide nature journals to all participants. The program is for ages 13 and up. The cost is $15.

The Salato Center has a variety of native animals for the public to see, including a black bear, bobcats, elk, deer, bison, eagles, snakes and fish. The Center has numerous indoor exhibits and miles of hiking trails open to the public. Fishing is available at two lakes.
