Water Conservation Workshop Features Speakers, Tools, Awareness

March 4, 2010 by Tania Marien

On March 11th, ArtPlantae will participate in the 2nd Annual WaterMiser Workshop hosted by the City of Newport Beach. This successful event is for Newport Beach residents and brings awareness to water conservation issues facing not only the local community, but the global community as well. Presentations and practical how-to instruction are the foundations of this event.

This year, the Botanical Artists Guild of Southern California and ArtPlantae will be in the Exhibitors Courtyard to bring special attention to the plants in our world. Cards, prints, and books will be available for purchase.

Visitors to the Exhibitors Courtyard will also be able to learn wonderful new skills such as how to harvest rainwater, how to wash a car without water, and how to create a water-wise landscape.

Hope to see you next week!
