Learn about various texts on rain and then create a zine with your own writings.
From Mary Oliver's conversations with rain and Amanda Thomson's sixty- two words for rainy weather, to John Muir and Elif Shafak's histories of a single raindrop, rain has many voices. Join The Nature Library for a creative workshop exploring these voices and celebrate this weather phenomenon.
Suitable for all ages. No experience necessary.
