Join Adhi for a full-day immersive experience of art and nature along the scenic Ammonoosuc River. This 3.25 (6.5 round trip)-mile guided hike follows the peaceful rail trail, offering opportunities to explore, observe, and sketch the dynamic landscape of Northern New Hampshire. Along the way, we will stop to identify native plants, listen for and identify local bird species, and take in the geology and ecology of this vibrant riverside habitat.
Participants will have time to draw, paint, and visually respond to their surroundings using their own art materials. Instruction and inspiration will be provided through prompts and group discussions, as well as informal guidance on composition, color, and natural observation techniques.
This class is perfect for artists, naturalists, and anyone seeking a meaningful way to connect with the living world through creative expression.
What to Bring:
A packed lunch and plenty of water
Comfortable walking shoes or hiking boots
Weather-appropriate clothing
Portable art supplies (e.g., sketchbook, watercolor set, pencils, pens)
Field guide (optional)
Note: This is a moderate hike on relatively level terrain. Participants should be comfortable walking for several hours.
