Practice close observation in nature with faculty from the Landscape Architecture program. Drawing from 18th century forms of landscape observation, participants will have the opportunity to practice and play with early technology that people used to alter their perspective of the landscape such as the Claude glass and cyanometer. Then participants can try their hand at creating their own tools that elicit new mediations of the landscape.

Self-Care Saturdays is a weekly recurring museum programming initiative that helps attendees explore wellness through art and artistic mediums.
