Let’s Make Together! is designed for children aged 3 -5 and their adults. Annalesa Albright brings together her nature, craft, and parenting skills for a series of hands-on, age-appropriate making workshops. Art-making can be messy, and the group will spend time outdoors whenever possible, so please dress appropriately.
Sessions
January 13: Birdseed Sculptures
Let’s make the birds happy during the winter months with a masterpiece to hang in your yard. We’ll have a variety of bird treats (think oranges, cranberries, popcorn, nuts, and seeds) to create a hanging sculpture. We’ll talk about different birds you might see in your yard and make a logbook to record what you see. Note: Nuts will be used in this workshop.
February 10: A Glass Lantern
Bring some color and light into your winter. Join us in transforming an ordinary jar into a colorful creation using tissue paper, beads— and maybe even some sparkles. We’ll provide an easy, safe, LED candle to light it up.
About Annalesa Albright
Annalesa Albright has been a member of Lynden’s land team for six years. Her passions are gardening, exploring nature, and crafting (knitting, nature crafts, sewing). Using natural materials in her projects is very important to her. She has a formal education in local food systems and has spent years building her knowledge of local flora and fauna. Annalesa has a two-year-old daughter and is always finding ways to incorporate her passions into her parenting. She is eagerly sharing this confluence of interests with the Lynden community in Let’s Make Together!, a new series of workshops for 3-5-year-olds and their adults, and by hosting the monthly Knit @ Lynden group.
