Fertile Desert: Urban Planting

About the event

Delve into the world of gardening and local ecology during a weekend dedicated to environmental education and community engagement at the Diriyah Biennale. This hands-on session teaches children and community members about gardening tools, tree care, and species identification through practical activities and creative expression.

Who is this for:  Adults and Teens (Aged 15+) 

What you will gain: Participants will learn practical gardening skills, explore ecological sustainability through cultural tastings, and engage in artistic activities like painting sessions, where children will create artwork inspired by the trees they plant. The workshop includes planter workshops, educational talks on local flora, and a painting session in collaboration with a local art studio. Additionally, participants can take part in a large-scale planting activation, contributing to local biodiversity. The weekend aligns with the ROSHN Green Initiative, featuring seed kit giveaways to encourage planting at home.

Experience the joy of gardening and contribute to a greener future at the Biennale!
