Save the date for this Nature Journaling event at the Botanical Gardens of Rome! (italian version below) Join us for an immersive Nature Journaling experience at the botanical garden, where art, science, and relaxation meet in a green and regenerating environment. During the event, we'll begin with a moment of mindful observation through drawing: we'll stroll among plants and flowers to slow down and connect with nature. A session suitable for everyone, even those with no experience: you'll learn to capture the shapes, details, and colors of plants through free and creative sketches. Alongside the artistic practice, there will be a brief botanical explanation that will guide you through the characteristics of the observed species: flower structure, plants, adaptations, and scientific curiosities explained in a simple and engaging way. We'll conclude the experience with a painting and origami activity inspired by the Japanese garden and cherry blossoms, where we'll transform paper into flowers and create Japanese-style postcards. A chance to slow down, learn, and be inspired by the beauty of the natural world. MATERIALS: All included EXCEPT the basic notebook. Workshop price: 15 (DISCOUNTED price - entrance ticket to Botanical Gardens not included) --- Unisciti a noi per un’esperienza immersiva di Nature Journaling all’orto botanico, dove arte, scienza e relax si incontrano in un ambiente verde e rigenerante. Durante l’evento, inizieremo con un momento di osservazione consapevole tramite il disegno: passeggeremo tra piante e fiori per rallentare il ritmo e connetterci con la natura. Una sessione adatta a tutti, anche a chi non ha esperienza: imparerai a catturare forme, dettagli e colori delle piante attraverso schizzi liberi e creativi. Accanto alla pratica artistica, ci sarà una breve spiegazione botanica che ti guiderà alla scoperta delle caratteristiche delle specie osservate: la struttura del fiore, piante, adattamenti e curiosità scientifiche raccontate in modo semplice e coinvolgente. Concluderemo l’esperienza con un’attività di pittura e di origami su ispirazione del giardino giapponese e dei ciliegi in fiore, in cui trasformeremo la carta in fiori e creeremo cartoline in stile nipponico. Un’occasione per rallentare, imparare e lasciarsi ispirare dalla bellezza del mondo naturale. MATERIALI: tutti inclusi TRANNE il taccuino di base. Prezzo del workshop: 15 (prezzo SCONTATO - NON include il biglietto di ingresso all'Orto Botanico)

Domenica mattina, alle 11, nel verde di Villa Torlonia, ci prendiamo un’ora. Un’ora per rallentare il ritmo della settimana, rientrare nel corpo, respirare con più attenzione. Inizieremo con una pratica di yoga accessibile, per sciogliere tensioni e ritrovare presenza, e lasceremo poi spazio alla meditazione, senza forzature, senza aspettative. Non serve esperienza, non serve “saper fare”. Basta arrivare. Il contributo è di 10€. Porta con te un tappetino e qualcosa di semplice ma essenziale: disponibilità a fermarti, anche solo per un momento. Ci vediamo lì!
