Plant drawing sessions at Darebin Parklands over 5 weeks

6–8pm Wednesday evenings

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 plants that are indigenous to the Darebin Creek catchment and the local ecologies these plants support. The cooler, wetter Wurundjeri season Waring is a time of growth for many plants, and is a great time for planting :)

This 5-week course will highlight different ecologies of the Darebin Creek catchment and connect to different habitat restoration activities along the creek.

Come along and enjoy :)

Sessions are indoors at the Gleeson Centre.

Fees are ‘sliding scale’ and include all art materials, venue hire, and 10% donation to First Nations orgs

Session dates:

April 23, April 30, May 7, May 14, May 21

All drawing materials provided.
Please contact me with any access needs.
