Rock Out with Rock Art - Holiday Workshops

Explore, Create, and Be Inspired!

This creative adventure starts with a guided nature walk through the gardens of the Arboretum, where you’ll gain new insights to the wonders of the Arboretum and gather inspiration for your very own rock art. Then finish with a creative session decorating your own rocks.

Workshop Highlights:

• Guided Garden Walk: Discover the wonders of the Arboretums collection of gardens. Let the natural forms and colours fuel your creativity.

• Creative Rock Painting Session: Our friendly educators will guide you through painting techniques to make your rocks come alive with colour and character. You’ll also learn how to seal your artwork to last.

• Take Home Your Art: By the end of the session, you’ll have a collection of hand-painted rocks that reflect your creativity—a perfect keepsake or gift!

Offering an inspiring blend of art and nature, it's the perfect outdoor experience for budding artists.

*This workshop is designed to be inclusive of varying abilities, with accessible paths and bathroom facilities.
