BCA is excited to offer two separate free workshops in conjunction with Kew Gardens on Friday 25 April, 1–3pm and Sunday 27 April, 2–4pm at Rose House.

Nature, memory and creativity

Connect to nature creatively and reminisce with Kew Gardens in our hands-on arts session. Nature means so much to us, and the sights, sounds, and smells of nature can bring back powerful memories. Perhaps the crunch of autumn leaves reminds you of going back to school, or the smell of freshly mown grass reminds you of lazy summer afternoons.  Reminiscence activities are designed to spark memories, encourage conversation, and create meaningful connections as you create your own nature artwork to take away with you. This can help boost your confidence and wellbeing, too!

We would particularly like to welcome our older members, and those who have not visited Kew Gardens before. Friends, family or support workers are welcome to join you too.

Please let us know if you have any access requirements, we would be happy to make any adjustments to ensure you can join us.

This free event is for BCA members but places are limited – email membership@barnes-ca.org to reserve a place. RSVP by Thursday 24 April.
