Environmental Education for
Environmental Literacy

The PETAL Project is Participatory Environmentalism Through Art & Learning. Our goal is to provide creative and educational opportunities to cultivate purposeful community environmental literacy. We provide:
- Environmental education resources
- Classes and workshops focused on environmental topics
- Environmental project consultations and collaborations

We foster interactive, experiential, and creative learning opportunities with educators and environmentalists from a variety of backgrounds and perspectives. We combine the expressions of our creativity and imagination with the development of environmental literacy and community building skills. We are a shared community of environmentalists, educators, ecologists, naturalists, activists, artists, creative placemakers, and community builders that seek to cultivate environmental action and nurture caring relationships with the living and nonliving entities we share the environment with. Our Education is based in Community:
We create learning opportunities through community involvement & engagement. We are currently based in North Texas.
