Strawtown Studio’s mission is to create and provide learning experiences that connect youth and communities with the natural world through the arts. As a team of artists, naturalists, and educators, we also seek to model and inspire environmental awareness and stewardship. The relationship of people to place is at the heart of our mission. Strawtown artists teach from numerous locations in the Hudson Valley and develop art programs around the natural features and history of each place. Participants are guided to explore a wide variety of innovative art forms with natural and fine art materials, and learn about themselves while at the same time becoming aware of their local environment.

We offer hands-on workshops that combine nature exploration with art-making and science discovery. Often our workshops involve going for a short walk outdoors to experience nature and harvest natural materials.
