PEEC News:

Tuesday, Nov. 6, PEEC will offer the first in a series of three classes on travel and nature journaling taught by Terry Foxx, Katy Korkos and Fairley Barnes. 

The class is on three consecutive Tuesdays from 6-8 p.m., and costs $40 for PEEC members and $50 for all others.

This price includes all supplies and materials for the three sessions.

Many of us are looking for ways to connect with our world through travel or simply through observing nature around us.  

Traveling, we pack our suit case with a notebook intended to be a journal. 

The first one or two nights we are judicious in writing notes, then life overtakes us, and we come home with a blank notebook. 

Or we go on a walk, something catches our eye, and we want to remember. But we say to ourselves, “I’m not an artist” and we tuck the experience away in memory that soon fades.

But there is a more permanent way to record our explorations. Korkos, Barnes, and Foxx will share ways to record observations, feelings, and experiences in a variety of journal types that are simple, easily done, and don’t require a mastery of art. 

These methods provide a memorable, fun and satisfying record of travel or nature experiences.
