AZ Culture Connection at the Historic Ice House Downtown

All ages welcome!

Come create Shadow Boxes inspired by artist Joseph Cornell, and by the Book, Fuzz - what antics can you design for some shadow box animals? This is only one part of the From Wishcycling to Wonder Night at AZ Culture Connections!

Participants can display their art work at the Ice House throughout the month and pick it up at the Big Read Wrap party in May!

Free registration is required, all materials and snacks will be provided!

This season's Flagstaff Big Read is asking us all to take a walk on the wild side with Mary Roach’s book: FUZZ: When Nature Breaks the Law! It is a collection of stories about the many many times that non-human animals and human animals have had to learn how to get along - or are still learning.

You can pick up a free copy of Roach’s book at the Flagstaff Public Library, Cline Library, The Riles Building at NAU, the Murdoch Center, or Culture Connect AZ! Join one of our programs between January and May 2026 to engage with your community while learning more about animals and how we live with them all around the world.

Go to Flagstaff Big Read Coalition to learn more about our free community events, check-out reading lists and at-home activities, or learn more about Fuzz!

FOUND + FORAGED
LEARN NATURAL INK & PIGMENT MAKING WITH JILL SANS
Sunday May 17th, 12-4pm
Discovery Village of MNA, Guernsey Building
3101 N. Fort Valley Road, Flagstaff AZ
$160 materials included, payment plan available
Register at by May 1st

Found + Foraged is an art experience that takes you on the journey of process, to observe and connect to nature seasonally, take in what is around you and to create in the present moment of place and time. We will learn about plant pigment, how to create inks from plant material available to you in the kitchen or outside your door, and from there we learn additional steps to transform plant pigment into lake pigment, to watercolor, to pastel.

You will go home with an understanding of the basic steps to make your own art materials from the natural world. A connection through observation, to mindfulness creation. All students will leave with a little nature art box to create at home with; including inks, watercolor and pastel. We will end the session with an art activity that is accessible for all levels of creativity.

All materials are provided, we will do a short mini walk around the garden but all harvesting will have been done beforehand. Found + Foraged will give you the basic knowledge in how to collect ethically and sustainably.
