Thank the bees, bats, birds, moths, and butterflies for their work to help flowers reproduce by using pressed petals that have naturally fallen from plants to create a landing pad for these generous beings.
Then, use seeds and dirt to create a living sculpture of a pollinator you would like to honor to take home and plant.Please note:
- Advance registration is required.
- Family Art Project happens outdoors. Be sure to dress appropriately for the weather and to work with natural materials.
- Shine only. Check the website the morning of for the status of the day’s program.
- Please have your masks on when you arrive, and be prepared to respect physical distancing throughout your stay.
- The location is the Conifer Slope, just to the right of Wave Hill House. Please enter from the roadway that runs along the front of Wave Hill House and to the lawn leading down to the Conifer Slope. Staff will greet you there!
- The number of families able to participate at any given time will be limited to about five. If you arrive and capacity is full, program staff will provide a “come back” card so you will have first entry for the next session.
