Plant drawing sessions at Darebin Parklands over 5 weeks

6–8pm Wednesday evenings

A relaxing and creative way into 2025 – and an opportunity to connect with plants, learn with others and find your own way with drawing in a supportive and inclusive space.

The 5 drawing sessions focus on the indigenous plants of the Darebin Creek catchment and what they’re up to during the sunny, dry Wurundjeri season Biderap. Sessions are indoors at the Gleeson Centre and outdoors on short walks in the Parklands.

Come along and enjoy :)
