Towards the summer we are going to spend all of our time outdoors, camping and cooking on fire. We will collect and prepare wood, learn how to start a fire with a flint stone and a fire nest.

We will do a lot of outdoor art, weaving and sculpturing, designing natural eco homes and tree houses. Create and imagine in and with nature, learning to see and follow its patterns and beauty.

Weaving in the stories of our ancestors will help us get grounded and develop a sense of belonging to the land where we are.
As usual we will be meeting on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays 9.30 am -2.30 pm.
Ka kite wawe koe 🍃 🔥

Let's celebrate the coming of Kōanga/Spring with an Art and Nature holiday program from heARTinNature (October 4-6).

We will be based in the Karamatura pristine reserve and Kitekite falls area, connecting with nature as we search for inspiration and materials for creative expression!

We will be exploring art using various techniques and materials that we are going to find and make ourselves from what we find in Ngahere/the bush (inks, paints, brushes, paper). We will spend our days in play - grounding ourselves, delving into mindfulness practices, singing, practicing yoga, scavenger hunting and preparing and cooking food camping style on a gas cooker.

9.30 am - 2.30 pm - $80 per day incl. food and snacks.

Join us for a recharging experience in Nature.
