Multispecies Garden Vision Council: What the Garden wants

Berwick Barracks  |  30 July 2022

Ended

Artists Sabina Sallis and Magdalena Starska will lead a session using movement, meditation and creative activities to carefully listen and develop awareness of the tennis court site.

Take part in savoring the terrain, experimental orientation and mapping of the site and the creation of a tablecloth made using handmade and natural dyes to set the table for a feast of wild crafted delights.  

This event is part of the Multispecies Visionary Council – a two day gathering at an overgrown former tennis court at Berwick Barracks to explore how the site could be developed into a community art garden whilst retaining the natural environment that already exists there.  

Other events include: 

Terra Domes of mythic and cosmic concerns – Saturday 30 July 2pm – 5pm 

Naturally occurring substance known as electricity  – Saturday 30 July at 4pm and Sunday 31 July at 5pm 

Permaculture for the Place – Sunday 30 July 11am-2pm  

Multispecies Cultures – Sunday 30 July 2pm-5pm 

And, if you don’t want to take part in any workshops but would like to visit the site to view the artworks and performances, you can book a free ticket to visit between 4-6pm on Saturday or Sunday here.
