1 event
Online event
Unlimited seats
In this engaging, sensory-based workshop, Toya L. Walker explores how cultivating native plants and small urban gardens can inspire children’s storytelling, art, and creative expression. Participants will learn how gardening principles—patience, observation, and care—mirror the creative process. Through guided reflection and practical examples, Toya demonstrates how even limited spaces can yield abundant ideas and narratives that foster environmental stewardship, cultural identity, and self-discovery. Perfect for writers, educators, and illustrators seeking grounded, soulful ways to grow their work—literally and creatively. A recording will be available to registered participants for one month after the event. PLEASE NOTE - You must register before the event in order to have access to the video.
