About this Event
The theme for ExBo 2023 is water. As part of ExBo 2023, you are invited to create origami waterbirds that will be added to our community display.
The waterbirds created are based on local wildlife from the Djirda Miya (Noongar name meaning home of the birds) or Black Swan Habitat. This area contains a series of interconnected man-made lakes in the South Perth Foreshore that sits east of Coode Street – Hurlingham Lake, Douglas Lake and Lake Tondut. The Black Swan Habitat provides improved habitat for native waterbirds while providing a retreat for bird watching, breeding, ecology, and learning.
The local waterbirds, such as Black Swans and Ducks will be created using recycled books and coloured paper. The creative sessions coincide with Australia Reads in March 2023, where readers all over Australia celebrate the joy of books.
All materials are supplied and a facilitator will be on hand to assist.
This is a casual, drop in session.
ExBo 2023 will be on display at the Manning Library Box Gallery from August-November 2023.
