Art in Nature

Students will watch rangers explore artistic and creative abilities as they compete to win Crater Lake National Park’s annual employees’ newspaper art competition. Rangers present examples of how art helped preserve Crater Lake National Park as they practice making art and honing their creativity. Students participate by going outside to find inspiration in nature for their own creative artwork. Students can e-mail us their artwork and we'll display it on the official Crater Lake National Park Science and Learning Center website!
