On-Beach Marine Conservation Event
21 March @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Have you ever wondered what that green, brown, or red stuff on the beach really is? 🤔
Have you got an artistic streak just waiting to come out? 👨🎨
We’ve got an event just for you!
In our BioBlitz last month we surveyed all of the different lifeforms we could find in our Brighton Beach Marine Conservation Zone, and this month we want to zoom in on one overlooked group: seaweeds! Did you know there are over 200 species of marine macroalgae (seaweed) in Port Phillip Bay alone? 🤯
Join us and meet some of these species up close for an 🪸 Algae and Seaweed Pressing Workshop 🪸 where you can make and take home a beautiful print straight from your local beach! No skills required – trust us, it’s easy!
PROGRAM DETAILS:
When: Saturday 21 March from 10am-12pm.
Location: Brighton Beach, opposite Wellington St. – Look out for the EC flags!
What to bring: We will provide materials, so just bring yourselves and what you need to be sun-smart.
Who: Everyone welcome
Keep your eyes open for more upcoming marine events!
