Tracing Trees: Drawing and walking workshop

Tracing Trees is a free, two hour outdoor drawing and walking workshop that explores our relationship with trees. Join artist Alastair Kwan and writer Jo Sinclair on the 28th June in Eddington.

  • 28th June 2025 - 28th June 2025
  • 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

Part guided walk, part hands on making; participants will learn about animal homes within the ecosystem, the process of recording the environment through taking rubbings and will also having the opportunity to view Eddington’s 430-year-old Veteran Oak up close.

The textured impressions gathered throughout the session will be worked into, multiplied and collaged, creating multilayered artworks that explore our relationship with trees, resulting in a personal visual diary of Eddington’s natural surroundings. No art or arboreal experience needed, all materials provided.
