Creative Pursuits from Natural Materials
Get creative here! There are opportunities to engage with nature to make temporary art all year around here at the park.
Like famous artists Andy Goldsworthy and Richard Schilling, you can find all sorts of natural materials in your environment to assemble your ideas: leaves, pods, twigs, flax string, flower petals, fruit, and pebbles—all of which can make extraordinary installations to photograph on the ground, hanging from trees, or floating on water.
Take photos of your artistic creations to share your photos at #ephemeralart . Inspire others to make use of natural materials. We encourage you to scavenge on a small-scale for materials and get creative with them. Talk to staff if you need more materials for your in-the-park project!
