Dog Day at the Park
Dog Day is back at the Sculpture Park - bring along your four-legged friend for some special treats from Mutt Butter and a chance to stretch your legs on our 2km walk through the Park.
See over 100 sculptures and enjoy some of the 30 different bird songs you will hear during your Art-In-Nature experience that is the Sculpture Park.
Introduction to Sculpture
Come and join Sylvia here in the Sculpture Park for a fun 2 hour workshop where you will explore a few different materials to create playful forms. The setup is aimed for curious creatives who would like a teaser and introduction to working with sculpture in a relaxed setting. You will walk away with a couple of masterpieces in your hand and a great time is guaranteed.
When? Sunday 4th August 11am-1pm. Entry fee is included in the workshop fee so you can enjoy the park afterwards.

Seeds of Renewal
This annual event celebrates the 33 year restoration project of a former quarry; it recognises the processes of renewing, renovating, and restoring the land, the soil and the vegetation. A series of workshops inspire visitors with hands-on experiences throughout the weekend: guest speakers, seed collecting, propagation, organic gardening, pruning, and soil care. And of course, the opportunity to enjoy the 2km art-in-nature walk!
