Learn how to look closely at nature and draw your own tree trunk slice!

How do we know the age of a tree? By counting its rings, of course! Join experienced artist Christina Kortz at Main Branch Library to create your own tree slice! By drawing circles within circles, kids and families can learn about how to count the rings of a tree while also flexing their creative muscles.
