Olivia, who is 5 1/2, thought this old-fashioned washing machine was interesting. It is outside the restored lightkeeper's home at Split Rock Lighthouse (north of Two Harbors, Minnesota). That's Sophia waiting to get in the building and my arm.

Participants of the Sedums and Yuccas container workshop learned about these beauties and then got to design and create their own to take home. Annelise Dooleage, OC Faculty, lead the workshop with the assistance of Kelly Storm and the participants were like kids in a candy shoppe! What fun?!

This project allowed students to practice a set of skills that are useful in both business and in life – collaboration, analysis, communication, leadership, creative thinking, and empathy, among others. It also provided them with an opportunity to reflect more upon the reading they’d been doing and make connections with their own lives and shared struggles.

 

Our printmaking project was designed to create an opportunity for students to discuss and think deeply about mass incarceration, police brutality, and problems with the criminal justice system. By working together in small groups to design and create their own posters, they add their voices to the on-going dialogue around these issues.

For their 6th TogetherGreen Volunteer Day event, Los Angeles Audubon held a fun, hands-on environmental education day at Leo Politi Elementary School, and had over 400 people attend! It served as the culminating event to a year-long process of student-student mentorship, science illustration instruction, and hands-on habitat restoration.

 

Students in LA Audubon's Baldwin Hills Greenhouse Program worked with elementary school students and their families, educating the urban community about the threatened habitats and species of the Ballona Creek watershed. Through hands-on, student-generated activites, participants learned about coastal sage scrub and sandy beach habitat, and got to explore the school's new habitat garden.
