Green Experience

- and every week until Tue, 27 Nov '18 Export as iCalendar
Location: Varies each week - see Potential Advantage webpage

This activity includes the following sessions:

  • Looking at the Barry Flannigan sculpture of the Hare acrobats, use charcoal to do drawings of the sculpture, choosing different angles and perspectives, several quick sketches and changing positions/viewpoints several times.
  • Recycling a plastic bottle to make a self-watering planter for your windowsill, to grow spinach, lambs lettuce, or herbs. (Bring along an old 1.25L-2L plastic bottle, if you have one ready to recycle).
  • Wandering through campus on a trail, discovering sculptures you may not have seen before. Leave your own land art for others to find… leaf circles and patterns, stick stacks and woven ‘nests’ miniature stone circles etc…
  • Visit the Barry Flannagan sculpture and make your own sculpture of a hare.
  • Collecting wheelbarrows of autumn leaves to turn into leaf mulch and a spot of relaxed weeding.
  • Taking a tea light candle on a trail of discovering tree spells and messages. Leaving our own messages and spells in the trees.
  • Clearing out our beds outside and in our polytunnel, ready for the winter, and possibly planting some autumn-growing vegetables too!
  • Making seed bombs out of clay, soil, and wildflower seeds that can be dried out and later used for a small bit of ‘guerrilla gardening’.

Session order will depend on the weather and how the seasons change this year.
