Event Description

One of RBG’s Courses & Workshops

Nature is your canvas with this art-themed family event! Join us for a hike through the woods as we learn about the rocks and minerals beneath our feet, then use that knowledge to create our own paint using natural ingredients. Create a pocket painting inspired by RBG’s natural landscape using a mix of conventional paints and natural pigments.

Meet at the Nature Centre (Arboretum).

Fee: $12 Child (4 to 12 years), Free child (3 and under), $18 Adult (RBG Members 10% off) + Service Fee
