Summary/Abstract: In this paper we present the results of a pedagogical experiment on the integration between natural and artistic education in primary school. Integration between environmental and art education was performed by the program “Art in Nature – Nature in Art”. The research was conducted in the period from October to February 2014. The studies involved 4 groups: two groups of pupils in 1st and 2nd classes of primary school and two groups of students of pedagogy – the future teachers of primary classes. It turned out that implemented program is suitable for widening the environmental knowledge of pupils through artistic activities. Students’ knowledge about natural environment and the interdisciplinary integration was expanded too, as a result of participation in the program “Art in Nature – Nature in Art”.
