Festival; Demonstration
10am to 2 pm. Saturday, June 28, 2025
Champlain Heights, Vancouver, BC
A community engaged event, free and accessible to everyone. I’ll demonstrate how to make leaf sculptures using a paper-pulp casting method, using recycled paper with native plant seeds. Take one home to dry and enjoy it inside, or leave it outside to biodegrade and maybe (just maybe) some seeds will grow as it returns to the earth.
