✨ Attention Teachers!
We invite you to join the education team from the Botanic Gardens and State Herbarium, alongside members from Makers Empire, UniSA and renowned glass artist, Tom Moore for a night of artistic discovery curated just for teachers.
Be amongst the first to hear about the education program developed for this exhibition as well as experience Chihuly Nights and be mesmerised by dramatically lit glass sculptures as you are guided through the exhibition by a South Australian glass artist.
This Professional Development will explore the ways your classes can interact with the Chihuly in the Botanic Garden exhibition. You will be given a first look at self-guided and educator led experiences that you are able to book your classes into.
You will be introduced to the Makers Empire challenge course, Watching Glass Grow, as well as hear from members of UniSA Creative to learn about opportunities to engage your students with tertiary opportunities in creative industries, followed by a creative workshop in the Bicentennial Conservatory, guided by Tom Moore.
Afterwards, be led on a guided tour through the exhibition by glass artists to hear about the process from the how these artworks are designed and made in Dale Chihuly’s Seattle workshop and transported to South Australia to be assembled for the exhibition.
As the night concludes, you are welcome to stay on in the Gardens as part of Chihuly Nights.
