En Plein Air: Clouds and Climate Change

Join us for observational drawing and cloud watching in this workshop inspired by the outdoor painting practice of painter John Constable. We will learn about the dynamic, chaotic world of clouds, the important role they play in our climate, and their history as a symbol in art and popular culture.

Co-Taught with Atmospheric Science Graduate Students Manali and Nelly at UW

Organized by

Drawing Herd is an observational workshop series hosted by Coco Allred. Taking place in downtown Seattle and parks across King County, the project aims to give participants new ways to cultivate attention with particular emphasis on the bioregion and historical context of each site. Each class is co-taught with special guests whose expertise ranges from parkour tricking to choreography to atmospheric science.

All classes are free and supplies are provided!

The 2024 series is funded by the Downtown Seattle Association, the City of Bellevue, and the City of Sammamish.
