Come along to join the Director of Member Services, Melissa Milne, and other members for a springtime picnic at the Royal Botanic Gardens.
Bring along with you a packed picnic lunch and a pair of headphones and smartphone to hear stories and sounds from the Arid Garden, Herb Garden, Fern Gully, and Sensory Garden.
Immerse yourself in intertwining stories, atmospheric music and mesmerising sounds of the natural environment in Sonica Botanica, created by Melbourne sound artist Patrick Cronin.
Weaving together interviews, field recordings and a musical score, this evocative listening experience responds to collectors’ passions, botanical knowledge, favourite memories, childhood impressions, historical anecdotes and cultural viewpoints.
PLEASE NOTE: No RSVP is required, just turn up and meet Melissa at Gate C on Anderson St, near the Arid Garden.
