Focus on Nature is a Guelph-based, non-profit corporation and Registered Charity working to inspire young people to explore and connect with nature through photography. Founded in 2008, our core program consists of full-day workshops delivered in local grades 3 – 6 classrooms by teams of trained volunteers and staff. Our workshops are aligned with the Ontario visual arts curriculum, and focus on looking for the "elements of design" in nature. We use this visual language to help young people explore and describe the natural world.
