Members: $12. Non-members: $20. Recording will be available to registrants for four weeks after the event.
February 25 @ 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM
Professional photographer Doreen Wynja will take us down her soulful path into the world of garden photography. She will share highlights from her sumptuous book, The Spirited Garden: Creative Private Retreats (Rizzoli, 2025), written with former NHS Board Member Lorene Edwards Forkner. Her images capture the richly realized and profoundly personal visions of 17 garden-makers in the Pacific Northwest, from the Willamette Valley to the Salish Sea. This visually powerful presentation will fill you with inspiration, offer tips for brushing up your own image-taking skills and encourage you to get out into your garden and create your own magic.
