Pippa has worked with many schools, arts organizations, and museums to deliver education programs, predominantly on the creative arts, to help children and families develop an awareness of the natural world and the power of imagination. During lockdown, Pippa even began a Draw-a-long with Pippa and Friends series to get children inspired and creative. Pippa's art is closely connected with nature, and that is why she has chosen to work with organizations like Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust to develop Wild Wonders drawing workshops, Wallace Seymour Fine Art Materials to share the history and practice of paint-making and the Barber Institute of Fine Art to deliver a Zoom In On Nature workshop. Most recently, Pippa has been doing creative workshops for Google Arts \u0026amp; Culture for their creative teams in London, Paris, Hamburg, and the US. She's also been asked to run workshops at the Chelsea Flower Show and other RHS events this year.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"DK Publishing (Dorling Kindersley)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50593423196434,"sku":"9780744091946","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_92e89ab4-016f-4242-92c0-a8740c468b6d.jpg?v=1732116379","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/make-art-with-nature-find-inspiration-and-materials-from-nature-9780744091946","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
