It may be toasty outside, but don't let the heat scare you - take inspiration from it instead! Summer is the perfect time to prep for cooler weather. Join Green Spaces Alliance for the first installment of our two-part fall garden planning series: "Heat & Drought Resistant Plants." Participants will discover some of San Antonio's hardiest plants and then get hands on by creating your very own garden designs! We will teach you the basic principles of garden design and walk you through a planning exercise. At the end of the workshop, you'll get to take home your personalized layout for a Texas-tough garden. This workshop is perfect for adult audiences who want to save water and money by using resilient native plants.

The San Antonio River Foundation's summer camps at Confluence Park explore aspects of the natural environment and artistic process through daily projects, nature walks, community visits and artistic creations. This year, camps are offered for students ages 7-9 and 10-13.
Each day, students will learn about a different theme tied into the ecosystem of the river, park, and the communities that we live in. Much of the day will be spent making artwork that reflects our interest in the natural world. We will sculpt draw, and paint, work together and individually; learn to look and pay attention to things we may have overlooked before. Students should expect to spend time by the river and walking outside.
