Lakewood Artist-in-Residence, Alyssa Gregory, will speak about her lichen-based artwork.

Participants will take home copies of Abby Glauser’s lichen illustrations, designed for future lichen curriculum.

Lakewood is also an Arboretum, and class will photograph lichens on a designated tree-walk and help create a MN Lichen Trail at Lakewood. A memorable day with science & art at historic Lakewood Cemetery.

Box lunch, coffee, tea, water and snacks will be provided.
