Date

Location
Millers Pond Local Nature Reserve, Southampton
"Wild Arts" was a series of community-based art sessions held at Millers Pond Local Nature Reserve, blending creative practice with the exploration of urban wildness. These sessions invited participants to engage with the natural environment both as a source of inspiration and as a provider of materials.
Through guided activities, participants explored the unique setting of the reserve, learning practices for foraging and processing eco-friendly, place-based art materials directly from the land.
"Wild Arts" aimed to deepen the connection between community members and their local environment, fostering an appreciation for the natural world while encouraging sustainable, land-based creative practices.
