Art and Science on the McKenzie Preserve
Saturday, March 21, 2009—9am to
2pm—$10/15
People of all ages can enjoy the springtime environment of McKenzie
Preserve with instruction in art techniques for drawing and watercolor,
with time for creative expression, and an exploration of the creek and
its aquatic life.
Megan
and Ron Bohigian
will lead this class. Bring water & your lunch, extra shoes or water
shoes, a pad to sit on if it’s been wet, binoculars if you have them,
and art materials of your own if you prefer to use them. We will
provide pencils, charcoal and watercolors for the day. Meet at the
McKenzie Preserve. |

From Fresno, take Freeway 41
north. Exit at Friant Road and turn right at the bottom of the off-ramp.
Take Friant Road to the town of Friant. You will see Friant Dam ahead of
you. Follow Friant Road uphill, past the dam. At this point, Friant Road
bends to the right and changes its name to Millerton Road. Stay on
Millerton Road for 5 or 6 miles until you come to a stop sign at Auberry
Road.
At Auberry Road you will see a
gas station on your left. Using the gas station as your benchmark, note
your mileage and turn left. Go slightly over 3 miles on Auberry Road.
You will see some table mountain formations ahead. When you reach the 3
mile mark, slow down and prepare to stop.
The entrance to the preserve is
on the left, where you will see a large corral and a gate. Drive in at
the gate and park in the parking lot.
