KickArts: Insect Hotel

  • Cannery Arts Centre 1018 Norseman Road CHADWICK Australia (map)

Insect hotels offer a sanctuary to beneficial insects, especially pollinators. In this workshop, participants will create an Insect Hotel, using all natural materials they gather around the Cannery Arts Centre Forage garden to “furnish” their Insect Hotel. Guided by Silke Apel, from Leafy Greens Esperance, who has a passion for gardening and loves to assist people and the community in growing their own food and applying permaculture principles to everyday life. The main frame will be provided and kids have the option to leave it natural or decorate it with paint.

All materials are provided. Participants should wear clothes suitable for crafting, and must wear closed in shoes. Recommended to send them with a labelled water bottle.
