About this event

Meet at Bunurong Environment Centre, corner Ramsey Blvd and The Esplanade, Inverloch.

Participants will collect objects in the vicinity of the Bunurong Environment Centre. Then, using these and other materials that will be provided, they will turn these into pieces of art that may be taken home. The finished pieces could include poster size wall hangings, counter-top models or crafty objects like dream-catchers, limited only by the imagination of the artist. Our arty presenter will provide guidance and inspiration and assistance in constructing the imagined work.

This session is most suited for children aged 5 to 13 and anyone else willing to explore their artistic talents.
