Family Fun (5-10yrs): Flaming June with Hackney Herbal

About the workshop

Join Hackney Herbal and take inspiration from Leighton’s celebrated painting Flaming June to explore the colour orange in nature. The workshop will connect and inspire children about plants and the natural world, helping them learn how to identify them and find out more about their uses, as they get planting and enjoy the fresh air outside in the beautiful museum garden. Adults will benefit from a workshop designed to promote wellbeing through gardens and nature.
