Ongoing - available all year
In one of our most popular programmes, ākonga will explore our relationship with the natural world and learn more about how organic material can be used to create eco-friendly artworks. Using natural materials ākonga will create their own artwork inspired by nature.
They will gain a deeper understanding and connection to Papatūānuku through exploring the work of artists who use natural materials in their practice. This is also an opportunity for ākonga discuss the complexity of the relationship between humans and their environment, as well as ways to ensure we take better care of the planet in the future.
