$Free Art & Ecology Workshop with Artist, Gabby O\u2019Connor!$

Create art with local artist Gabby O’Connor and become part of 'Rau Whārangi,' an exciting community exhibition.
Join us for a free workshop that will explore the native plants of Te Whanganui-a-Tara drawing on Gabby’s research with mana whenua taiao experts, ecologists and kaimahi at Ōtari Native Botanic Garden.
Participants will use images of native leaves to make pictures and patterns on illuminated lightboxes. The artworks will be photographed and included in the first exhibition at Te Matapihi ki te Ao Nui, our redeveloped central library when the building reopens in March 2026.
