VBSNA’S Youth Art guild is open to students ages 11 - 17 who wish to explore nature through art. Non-competitive, individualistic, interactive & supportive - each session welcomes a different mentoring artist and includes outdoor sketching & journaling as well as indoor work.
As members of a nature art guild, young artist explore and create nature-themed works, and meet with guest artists of varying interests. While the style and media varies (ex. Anime, whimsical sculpture, botanical/scientific illustration, impressionistic painting, etc…) the central theme always celebrates Nature.
