Draw Plants Together - plant drawing 5 weeks

Draw Plants Together workshops at NECCHi East Coburg

Draw Plants Together offers friendly, inclusive drawing workshops that focus on our relationships with local plants. The workshops hope to support community-led activities that also focus on local plants, such as ecological restoration and urban food gardening, as well as offer a supportive space for creativity and well-being.

The weekly sessions at NECCHi East Coburg are ongoing, and have been running since mid 2024. The workshops are a space for creativity and an opportunity to spend time with plants and connect with other people.

This term will feature two 5-week short courses from

• April 24 to May 2

• May 29 to June 26
  

• July 3 will be a Plant Drawing Celebration for the term!
