Join us for a walk around Wivenhoe Park with Lora Aziz, who will tell us about the flower and fauna of the beautiful parkland in which Art Exchange resides.
As we explore the plants around us, Lora will tell us the folkloric and colonial histories in amongst the trees, while shedding sight on the impact of European grand tours and the traces of these expeditions on the landscape around us.
All welcome. Meet at Art Exchange at 1pm.
Sensible shoes recommended – plus there will be opportunities to go barefoot if you want to!
