Draw Plants Together

Plant drawing workshops for everyone

A space for learning and connection that centres plants and creativity

I work in collaboration with community and environmental organisations, local councils, the NFP sector, cooperatives, and plant and community-oriented social enterprise to provide a space for learning and growth.

I hope to provide opportunities for creative connections – on a personal level, with each other and with the plant communities and local ecologies around us.

I also hope to provide opportunities for experiential learning – learning by doing – and for all of us to feel more confident expressing ourselves with drawing!

Hosted at community spaces, events and festivals

Pencils, paper, ink …

I provide a set of basic materials to use on the day but bring your own art supplies and sketchbook if you’d like to :)

Free Indigenous plant every time you attend

Each session I bring along a range of Indigenous plants in forestry tubes from VINC (Victorian Indigenous Nurseries Co-operative).

The plants are for us to draw together in the session and for you to take home afterwards if you’d like to :)

How much?

I seek out grants or am paid by community organisations, councils, etc. to run Draw Plants Together.

Often workshops are free but sometimes there's a cost associated with attending. This depends on who is funding the workshop, where the workshop is being held or if the workshop is part of a fundraising or similar activity.

What can I expect?

• Fun and relaxed 2-hour creative sessions held at different locations on Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Country

• A feeling of wellbeing – notice plants more in the company of others and gain confidence with drawing

Plant drawing workshops for everyone

Draw Plants Together is an inclusive space. Everyone of all ages, backgrounds, sexualities, genders and abilities is welcome.

I prioritise accessibility in the delivery of my workshops. Please let me know if you have any access needs.

I am a qualified English language teacher, and am happy to provide language support for people learning English for no extra cost.

I donate 10% of my income from Draw Plants Together to First Nations organisations in Victoria.

Want to host a workshop?

If you are a local council, community org or equivalent and would like to host a Draw Plants Together workshop or include a workshop in your program of activities and events. please get in touch.

I am happy to tailor to the workshops to suit the context you’re in and to align with what you hope they will achieve.
