Join artist and illustrator Michael Novak for a hands-on workshop exploring the art of observation and natural form through charcoal drawing. Using specimens from Au Sable’s natural history collection—including birds and other preserved wildlife—participants will develop basic sketching techniques while engaging in close study of shape, proportion, and texture.

This workshop is designed for all skill levels, from curious beginners to experienced artists. All materials will be provided.

Space is limited — reserve your spot early!

Free to all enrolled Au Sable students.
