Public Workshop for Arts@SBG Community Arts Residency

Workshop Sounds of Nature

Conducted by Sistrum (Artist-in-residence) 

In nature every sound has a purpose. Sound also creates our sense of space, lives in our memory and connect us. Join artist-in-residence Sistrum for an outdoor/indoor workshop in listening and recording to discover more about the sounds that surround us. 

This rich sensory experience will bring you to a deeper exploration of the natural environment, to find out the voices of plants, animals, and people within the Gardens. You will also discover the beauty of sound and have fun in participating in creative sessions.

The workshop will begin at Rain Forest and will take you to Corner’s House lawn. There will be an optional follow-up Jam Session to this workshop on December 18 at the Botany Centre.
