Drawing, Wondering, Experiencing Nature: The Nature Journal Club at the Natural History Museum Ulm

The Nature Journal Club brings together people who want to explore natural objects with pencil, gaze, and curiosity on 21.05.2026 at the Natural History Museum Ulm. The monthly meeting focuses on drawing, observing, and perceiving together – without a teaching format, but with plenty of space for personal impressions and a special audience atmosphere.

An evening for all who want to see nature differently

The focus is not on a completed artwork, but on looking closely. Participants explore natural materials, sketch finds, and experience the museum as a lively place for research, communication, and creative discovery. The Natural History Museum Ulm describes the Nature Journal Club as a meeting place where everyone draws at their own pace and materials for trying out are available.

Calm atmosphere, clear structure, plenty of room for observation

The evening is aimed at people interested in nature, drawing, and the idea of the nature journal. Participants are encouraged to bring their own drawing materials; additionally, the museum provides materials to test. In good weather, the meeting can take place outside, allowing the surrounding environment to be part of the event experience. ([naturmuseum-ulm.de](https://www.naturmuseum-ulm.de/aktuelles/))
