Grassroots action draw: Postcards from friends
Paradoxa workshop @ Planting Party
7 September 2025
Fed Square Skyline Park
Paradoxa Collective artists were pleased to contribute to Planting Party, a community day of native tree and grass planting at sites around Naarm/Melbourne and afternoon of music, talks and workshops at Fed Square, celebrating all things plants.
Our workshop, Grassroots action draw, invited participants make their own postcard inspired by plants and animals indigenous to Wurundjeri Country. On the back they wrote about their environmental concerns. Each card was sent to policy makers to encourage them to make positive changes for a healthier planet.
