Forest Diary workshop

Try nature-journalling like Lumi! In Lumi and the Wolf, Lumi draws and writes what she sees and experiences in nature in her Forest Diary, and we’ll do the same! Author Lottie Saahko brings treasures from nature for us to draw while she tells us about Finnish wildlife, her research in Lapland and the stories behind Lumi and the Wolf. After the workshop, you can get your book signed.

Ages 8–13

Journey Across the Arctic

Embark on an Arctic adventure with author Lottie Saahko! Discover the wild landscapes of Lapland through videos from Lottie’s own research trips and test your knowledge of Arctic wildlife in a fun quiz. Then work together to create your own characters, choose an animal companion and workshop a story of survival and adventure in the frozen wilderness. Perfect for thrill-seeking adventurers, animal and nature lovers, and aspiring writers aged 8–13.
