Winter Family Sketch and Plant Hike

Bring the family and the neighbors’ kids to a Family Sketch and Plant Hike at Three Bridges Oak Preserve in Atascadero on January 18, 2025 from 9:30am to 11:30am.

Winter at Three Bridges can be cold and wet, the creek may be running high, but there is still lots to see and draw! Some of the trees drop their leaves and we can clearly see the branches. Other plants are already putting out leaves or even flowers (manzanitas and currants). It’s easier to see birds. What’s been scratching that tree, 12 feet up? This is an easy loop trail where we’ll stop and draw and name a few plants and their leaves, acorns, bark and anything else we find. It’s aimed at 5-10 year olds, but all are welcome. Art materials are provided and you can take your sketchbook home.

Please register and sign the liability waiver HERE for this event.

Bring water, snacks, sunscreen, hat, sturdy shoes, and dress in layers for changing weather. A plant list for Three Bridges Oak Preserve can be found on our website here. There are no bathroom facilities at the park. Heavy rain cancels this trip but hike will still occur in light rain.
