Join Britt Silvester for a gentle, hands-on workshop creating butterfly seed bombs with Indigenous seeds of local grasses that will grow into the host plants our butterflies need.

In this tactile and playful process, participants will shape small spheres of possibility, each one carrying the promise of colour, movement, and life. Designed for all ages, this workshop invites children and adults alike to Connect with Country and care for Country by supporting local pollinators and ecosystems.

By scattering the seed bombs in gardens or overlooked spaces, the participants will take part in a quiet act of care, encouraging regeneration, biodiversity, and the soft rewilding of place. Facilitated by Britt Silvester, a Yorta Yorta contemporary artist known for creative works that draw deep inspiration from the natural world and Indigenous cultural heritage.

Places limited to 15. Hosted in Platform Arts Performance Space.
