This friendly, fun and inclusive drawing session will invite children and their adults on a creative adventure at Nangak Tamboree Wildlife Sanctuary during the sunny and dry Wurundjeri season Biderap.

Facilitated by Jessica Richardson (Reservoir West Primary School) and Craig Burgess (Draw Plants Together).
