Join us for a special Wildflower Walk in Panton Hill with the Friends of Felix Borsari Incorporated. 

Settling in Nillumbik Shire in 1975, Swiss born and educated artist Felix Borsari (1945-2000) developed a passion for its abundant natural environment, which led to his discovery and artistic portrayal of a treasure of wildflowers near Panton Hill, where the Felix Borsari Wildflower Walk was named after him.  In 'First Impressions’ the artist captures the essence of that environment, with fresh eyes, sense of immediacy and precise visual acuity. His subjects are predominantly the natural environment of the North Riding of Eltham – broad landscapes, dense bushland and native flora – with occasional nods to iconic heritage buildings of the built environment.

This event is presented in Partnership with Arts & Cultural Development and the Environment & Sustainability team at Nillumbik Shire Council.
