Long Water Land is a free community education and art-making series along the Quinnipiac River hosted by the Ely Center of Contemporary Art, New Haven Sketchers, and other partners.

SITE NO. 5: RIVERSIDE HABITATS

Sunday July 21
1–3pm
Riverbound Farm Sanctuary
1881 Cheshire Street, Cheshire
Parking lot at Sanctuary

The woods and wetlands at Riverbound Farm are not to be missed! Eric Eichorn will talk about the preserve's history and wildlife, and his involvement with the Audubon Society.


After a brief talk we will explore each site and sketch, then share our drawings together as a group. No drawing experience necessary! We use sketching as a tool for observing, capturing, and reflecting on our surroundings. Some art supplies will be provided, but feel free to bring your own. Bring water and sun/weather/bug protection. We will be next to a river, after all!

Heavy rain will reschedule events; check back for info.
