Cultivate a Garden is a workshop that mixes themes of community, justice and collaboration whilst exploring anti-apartheid activism.The workshop explores the unique habitats and heritage of South Africa, its plants, animals and people, whilst investigating concepts of collaboration and resilience – in nature through plant and animal adaptations, and through the solidarity shown by people across the UK (and tailored to your school’s local area) during apartheid.A creative activity invites participants to design their own garden for community and wellbeing, thinking about how planting, shared spaces and design can create places that bring people together, support wellbeing and celebrate histories and communities. Where time permits, this can be developed into a 3D model; in 1–1.5 hour sessions, participants create a 2D garden design.We recommend 90 minutes and a maximum of one class at a time. We can work with multiple classes in one day e.g. if you have 2 class entry.
