Nature journaling is a practice that can help you learn faster, connect more deeply with nature, and regulate your nervous system. In this 3-hour interactive workshop, Instructor Marley Peifer will share the simple yet revolutionary approaches at the core of nature journaling. While using drawings, words and numbers to observe the plants and organic garden at San Diego Craft Collective, students will also learn how these techniques can play a role in mental health, attention management, community science, transferable skill-building and behavior change. Students need to bring a notebook or sketch book (even a few sheets of lined paper are fine), a pen and/or pencil (colors aren’t as important for this workshop), and your curiosity. Leave with sketches and notes tracing your learning adventure. No experience necessary.

Join us for a local debut by the Hamilton de Holanda Trio. De Holanda, one of Brazil’s most celebrated musicians, is a global ambassador for Brazilian music. Picking up the mandolin at the age of five, he revolutionized the 10-string version of the instrument, blending Brazilian traditions with jazz and other global influences. JazzTimes wrote, “Mandolin virtuoso and composer de Holanda proves the limitless capabilities of the Brazilian bandolim as a solo instrument.” DownBeat called him an “absolute maestro of rhythm and improvisation.” A four-time Latin grammy award winner with 17 nominations, de Holanda has earned international recognition and amassed over 14 million streams across 180 countries, with 800,000 monthly listeners on Spotify in 2024. His music is rooted in the vibrant choro street jams of Brasília. Hamilton de Holanda on Facebook / Instagram
