Celebrate your love for nature by creatively caring for nature.

As part of The Salons love lines program, our quirky play day will feature a miniature banquet of calming curiosities and simple pleasures, with nature-nurturing play stations including papermaking, bookmaking and bookbinding, hand-cut collage and homemade glues, found object bricolage and sculpture, textile transformation and sustainable framing.

Join our eco Salons artists, including Angie Contini, ieva Clive and art therapist Kerry Blake, as we wander in the wonderland of sustainable creativity. Throughout the day we’ll have timed sessions with our artists demonstrating some of the environmentally sustainable techniques used in our love lines exhibition.
