Event description
Discover the colours of the Wayi Community Garden, for playful, sensory eco-inking. Join artist Annie Bolitho for a simple, mindful and creative activity that’s perfect for adults and kids. We’ll explore natural pigments - plants, barks and earth and experience the magic of applying colours to paper. Amazing possibilities await as we learn how to produce waste-free eco-inks from our gardens.
Participants should bring along a sunhat and a feather, a stick or a bit of bark to work with. Places to this event are strictly limited. If you are no longer able to attend the event, please let us know by emailing programs@necchi.org so that we can pass your ticket on to another keen participant!
