Spring GNSI-NW Workshop - Minerals with Bart Cannon
Date: April 11, 2015
Time: 12-5PM
Location: Shoreline Library
345 NE 175th Street
Shoreline, WA 98155
Cost: Free!
Bart Cannon will present minerals and the history of mineral illustration. He plans to bring four stereo microscopes for viewing samples and also a polarizing light microscope for viewing petrographic thin sections. After Bart's presentation we'll have plenty of time for drawing and photographing samples. This will be free drawing time rather than a formal project so bring your favorite tools and prepare to have some fun.
In addition to Bart's presentation we'll have time for show and tell at the beginning of the workshop. Please bring your projects, in progress and finished, to share with the group. We'd all love to see what everyone's working on!

Winter GNSI-NW Workshop
Insect Safari with Don Ehlen
January 24th, 2015 12pm-4pm
Location: SHORELINE FIRE DEPARTMENT (Station 61)
17525 Aurora Avenue North
Shoreline, Washington 98133
January 24th was a real bugnanza with Don Ehlen and his traveling menagerie. After a short talk about his collection and many stories we photographed and drew specimens from Don’s collection. He has many videos on specimen preparation for those of you that missed the workshop and would like to rejuvenate those old bugs in your cupboards.
