Begin with a free tour of Yaamanga (around here), with the inclusion of images from YAM’s collection, to consider native plants and First Nations knowledge, plants introduced by early settlers, and species connected to migrant communities and the region’s multicultural history. 

After the tour, participants who would like to continue creatively can book a paid ticket to the hands-on Botanical Monoprinting Workshop. Led by artist Marc Renshaw, the workshop uses drawing, botanical materials and accessible water-based printmaking techniques to create expressive prints that reflect connections between plants, people and place. Suitable for beginners through to experienced participants.
