Saturday 11 October: Propagation pinch pots

Did you know that certain plants enhance our ecosystem better than others? 

Learn about the types of plants that boost our ecosystem and create your very own custom propagation pinch pot using air dry clay. 

Propagating native plants at home is an amazing way to give your habitat a natural boost. Through biodiversity, we can play a key role in supporting pollination and soil fertility.

Saturday 25 October: Plant pets

Make friends with plants in this exciting workshop.

In Earth Refuge, we are asked what changes we can make in the present, to impact the future. Creating connections and caring for our environment helps us feel empowered.

In this workshop, you’ll decorate a terracotta pot, ready to propagate with quick-growing chia seeds. Chia seeds sprout within 5-14 days, and gives your pet some personality! 

Saturday 8 November: Toolkits for the future

Artist Merinda Davies asks us to consider what we will need in the future to thrive as a community.

In this workshop, we will imagine the tools, skills, and abilities we might need in the year 3000. Together, you’ll learn the technique of embossing and debossing to create a unique keepsake box – ready to fill with everything you’ll need in your imagined future.

Saturday 22 November: Future me

Who do we want to be in the future?

Create a portal to the future in this artmaking workshop. Consider who we are, what matters to us, and why we should work together. 

In this session, we will experiment with paper media to create a doorway to our own imagined future. Step into the world you want to live in!
