Take your love for Art and Nature to the next level and share it with the world. Each of you will select a plant or animal from the Sonoran Desert and learn how to create graphite or pen and ink drawings for educational handouts that will teach students how to draw them as well as educate them about the species.

Once you complete your drawings, your artwork will be given a second life. Your completed handouts will be published on the Desert Museum’s Website, making them accessible as downloadable resources. Designed for classroom use, these handouts will be utilized by environmental educators and the general public to educate and inspire students about the iconic plants and animals of the Sonoran Desert.
