Lea Atiq
Secret Garden Book Making
Weeds hold secrets. Many years ago our ancestors used wild plants for food, medicine and for making things like shelters and clothing. Take a walk around your library with artist Lea Atiq, pick a plant or two to study and see what secrets they hide in plain view. Learn why the leaves and flowers you picked are so important, then make a book with a secret compartment to hide your special plant.
