RESET: 60 Years of the Australian Conservation Foundation

  • Free
  • Family and kids

The Australian Conservation Foundation hosts a pop-up family-friendly party at the RESET Festival - to play, celebrate and reflect on the importance of our natural environment.

Explore interactive installations where you can compose music with plants and write or draw your own personal messages to nature, contributing to an ever-expanding reflective artwork.

In the afternoons you can take a seat to listen to curated panel discussion with the Australian Conservation Foundation and guests and hear from inspiring voices who care deeply about the environment (Wed 24 Sep, 3pm-4pm), or join in an artist-led drawing workshop, where you can draw some of Australia’s unique and threatened species (Thu 25 Sep, 3pm-4pm).

Across two days, the Atrium becomes a welcoming space for all ages, to celebrate our living world together.
