About the event

Join Becky, Crane Park Island’s Learning & Engagement Officer, for a creative morning cultivating our connection to nature through drawing.

For this workshop, we will walk around the reserve and use the medium of drawing to focus our attention on the natural world.

This workshop is suitable for adults only. You don’t need to have prior experience in drawing to participate. Charcoal, pencils and paper will also be provided, as well as a clipboard. You are very welcome to bring your own materials if you would like to.

This is a free event, but donations are welcome. All profits are invested into London Wildlife Trust’s conservation and education work and the care of its nature reserves.

Mobility

There are entrances by footpath via Ellerman Avenue or Great Chertsey Road. Bus 110 stops in Powder Mill Lane, and bus 111 in Hounslow Road, both near the Ellerman Avenue entrance; buses 481 and H22 stop in Hospital Bridge Road, near Great Chertsey Road. The nearest railway station is Whitton, a 15-minute walk away.  

Most of the island is accessible by wheelchair, but one footpath has steps. Paths range from smooth to dirt. There are a number of bridges providing access to the island, without steps. Along the guided walk there is a bench, and seating by the river-dipping platform. The Shot Tower is only accessible at ground floor level for wheelchair users, where there are toilets.

Limited parking is available on nearby roads.
