Diary of an English Garden with Paul Bangay - An Exclusive Canberra Book Launch Presented by The Curatoreum and Thames & Hudson
Join celebrated garden designer and bestselling author Paul Bangay to launch of his remarkable new book, Diary of an English Garden.

Hosted by The Curatoreum in partnership with Thames & Hudson, this intimate event will be held in the award-winning Margaret Whitlam Pavilion at the National Arboretum Canberra. In conversation with a special guest, Paul will share the story behind his most personal book yet: a beautifully illustrated diary chronicling the transformation of a cottage garden in England's Cotswolds. From planting and planning to unexpected triumphs and setbacks, Diary of an English Garden offers readers a rare glimpse into the creative process of one of Australia's most beloved garden designers. Rich with observations on gardening, design, village life and the changing seasons, this is Paul Bangay at his most reflective, insightful and inspiring.
