Delightful Spring is all about enhancing the new season with creativity. Flowers are blooming and tree buds are appearing on bare branches. Soon our surroundings will be full of colour. It looks like spring has definitely sprung! Time to celebrate the arrival of Spring.
Join us this May for festivities; take part in creative workshops and art activities to awaken your senses. Delightful Spring is to shape the experience of multi-sensory with all of the senses of vision, touch and shapes, to experiment with various elements such as colour and texture.
Red Goes Green: Be brave to go for opposite colours, extreme shapes or wrong textures! Small to big, red to green and smooth to tough… Explore visual elements of in-season vegetables with opposite reactions to construct an odd dreamlike still life and stimulate your senses with unusual paths of expression.

Outdoor Drawing at Rockmount Primary School: Helping to enrich art education in the school and to raise school funding, we are excited to provide an outdoor drawing workshop in the Edible Garden at school in May as part of Delightful Spring.
Children will have a creative outdoor time to awaken their senses with the fresh air, the sun, the surrounding nature and observational drawing. Learning mark-making and drawing techniques, they will spot forms, colours and textures of Spring plants and catch them to express in their art.
This fun-filled experience blends outdoor exploration, hands-on drawing, and creative play. Perfect for adventurers with a love for nature and drawing! All proceeds will be donated to Rockmount Primary School.
22 May 2025 at the Edible Garden. More details will be sent out by the school.
