Event Overview
Spending time in nature is proven to reduce stress, enhance our wellbeing and strengthen our relationships with others. Bring the essence of nature into your workplace with this unique, hands-on experience, where teams put their minds and creativity together to create stunning living art pieces.
Before rolling up your sleeves, you and your team will engage in themed challenges, competing to earn the materials and equipment needed to create your living art. Through these activities, you’ll learn the essential techniques for creating fully functional living art and the importance of sustainability practices in preserving our environment.
Get your hands dirty and unleash your creativity as you create a unique piece of art, using natural materials like plants, moss and driftwood, either in a living frame or an adorable planter. Wherever possible, we’ll upcycle old and discarded items—who knew an old shoe could become a charming, vintage planter? At the end, take your unique piece of living art with you to display at home or in your office!
