SUMMARY:Negative Space
DESCRIPTION:Canceled! So sorry for the inconvenience. \nLooking for a new rim treatment\, gourd artists? Pine needles treated with glycerin and adorned with copper beads make a powerful statement on this asymmetrical gourd. Gourd artist\, Sue Brogdon will demonstrate a variety of finishes utilizing metallic copper. After the gourd is colored\, students will make small wire beads and twisted wire for lashing the pine needles. Next\, students attach two rows of pine needles. The first is a simple row lashing from hole to hole; the second row requires a wire wrap stitch and attaching the bead so it is suspended above the first row. Instructor will demonstrate how to make the second row structurally sound and how to line a gourd with handmade paper. \nStudents should bring plastic or latex gloves\, a wire cutter\, a roll (30 yards) of 26-gauge copper wire (Michaels or JoAnns)\, a heat tool (if you have one)\, sack lunch\, beverage\, and snacks. Instructor provides all other materials including dyed and natural pine needles.

SUMMARY:Flowers & Birds with Pinau Merlin at the Boyce Thompson Arboretum
DESCRIPTION:Climb aboard the bus for another wildflower ed-venture! On this tour we head for the beautiful Boyce Thompson Arboretum\, with its dramatic cliffs\, stream\, lake\, and varied habitats. In addition to the flower shows\, the Arboretum\, the oldest and largest arboretum (over 300 acres) in Arizona\, is listed as an Important Bird Area due to the riparian area and lush gardens. There is a high species richness and sometimes large numbers of migrants stopping over. \nThe diversity of habitats at the Arboretum provides many microhabitats where a variety of different flowers can be found. We’ll wander several trails and explore along the creek to see what gifts Nature has in store for us. We’ll have our picnic lunch in stunning and scenic surroundings and then explore more of the Desert Garden\, Cactus and Succulent Garden\, and other trails depending on where the best flower shows are at the time. The first Tuesday of the month Boyce Thompson generously offers free admission\, so the arboretum will be full fellow nature lovers! We finish up watching for wildflowers along the road on our drive home. Expert guides are on hand to help ID the flowers\, plants\, and birds we see. Please pack a sack lunch. Tohono Chul will provide snacks and water for the return journey. \nMore about Pinau Merlin: \nPinau is a nationally known speaker and naturalist and is the author of several books (including the Guide to Desert Holes\, Guide to Bird Nests and Eggs\, and is a contributing author to the Natural History of the Sonoran Desert) as well as over 80 articles about the wildlife\, natural history\, and ecology of the Desert Southwest. Pinau taught natural history at the U of A and was the Outreach Coordinator for the UA/USFWS Jaguar Project. She also works on numerous nature documentary films (including BBC\, National Geographic\, and others) as a natural history consultant and critter wrangler. \nPinau has designed natural history centers\, interpretive exhibits\, nature trails\, and wildlife habitats for a variety of organizations in the Southwest. Her insights and observations about the natural history and wildlife of the Sonoran Desert have been featured on PBS\, NPR\, and in Smithsonian and National Wildlife magazines\, among many others. She is especially interested in the adaptive strategies of plants\, birds\, and wildlife and in interpreting animal language.

In this class\, Marylee will share her recommendations for reliable and easy-care plants that will last through the summer (with appropriate water and care.) The bonus in this class is that when the summer flowers are ready for your compost heap\, you will know what to replace them with and save money by not replacing everything. \nMarylee’s book\, “Getting Potted in the Desert\,” is available for purchase in the TBG Gift Shop or can be shipped to your home by calling Christine at 520-326-9686. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstructor \nMarylee Pangman\n\n\nMarylee Pangman founded The Contained Gardener in 1998 as a niche business in the desert community of Tucson\, Arizona.   \nSince then\, Marylee has been compelled to share all that she has learned about container gardening over 20 years of blistering summers and record breaking winters.  Marylee sees container gardening as a way to have an oasis garden while conserving water as the demands of pots are far less than heavily planted areas and beds.  You can find Marylee’s book\, “Getting Potted in the Desert” at the Garden’s Gift Shop.  This excellent resource includes a month-by-month planning guide\, ideas for creating and caring for potted gardens\, advice on container selection\, and much more. https://thepotteddesert.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUpcoming Classes\n\n\n\n\n					\n\nClasses\, Nature & Ecology \n\n								Cacti of Arizona			\nApril 14 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm \n \n \n\n\n					\n\n2150 Club \n\n								Tending Tucson April			\nApril 15 @ 8:30 am – 10:30 am \n \n \n\n\n					\n\nFamily \n\n				Full 				Tucson Botanical Garden’s Mini-Master LEGO® Competition Sponsored by Bricks and Minifigs Tucson			\nApril 15 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm \n \n \n\n\n					\n\nClasses \n\n								Backyard Chickens: Housing\, Breeds\, and Husbandry			\nApril 17 @ 5:30 pm – 6:30 pm
