Colors of the River at Wykoff Run Falls

Join us at Wykoff Run Falls, a tributary of the West Branch Susquehanna River, to explore riparian pigments and what they can tell us about water quality. We will use art-based research methods to understand abstract scientific concepts by making paintings out of the surrounding colored materials such as leaves, bark, and rocks. Artistic skills or research experience are not required, only an open mind and clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty.

You will have a chance to have your 'visual data' featured at the end of the week in a Colors of the River Reception, where you can chat with other participants, show off your work, or simply enjoy reflecting on your time at the river!
