Co-organised with the Polish Cultural Institute and On&On Designs. In this interactive workshop, in the spirit of Alicja’s Plantation installation, you’ll learn how to craft stunning plant arrangements using eco-friendly materials while exploring the principles of sustainable design.

The workshop is perfect for anyone, regardless of prior experience, and participants will leave with their own handmade plant arrangement to take home.
