Creating With Nature WORKSHOP in CO SPGS, July 12&13

July 12 & 13, 2025 in Colorado Springs, CO

Creating With Nature Workshop

An inspiring two-day workshop in July led by Instructor/Artist Adam Long, where you’ll unlock the secrets of transforming natural objects, like sticks, stones, shells, seeds, bark, fiber, leaves, pinecones, feathers, etc., into stunning sculptural art. Imagine discovering your unique creative voice while gaining invaluable skills in assembly, preservation and display—all under Adam’s expert guidance.

By the end of this workshop, you will walk away with a one-of-a-kind sculpture that truly reflects your vision! But hurry—seating is limited, and the chance to work with nature’s treasures awaits you. All skill levels are welcome in the friendly and inviting atmosphere of Old Colorado City’s charming Old Town Guesthouse (Conference Room).
