    Workshop

Explore the connection between queer identity, environment, community and transforming spaces as designer and illustrator Edward Luke Thrush joins us in the RHS Lindley Library.

In this special Lindley Late workshop with Queer Botany, we’ll be using POSCA pens inspired by the colours of the Pride flag, and botanical cuttings from urban survivor species, we will create botanical inspired illustrations.

Queer Botany is an ecocritical project that studies and affirms connections between queerness and nature. The project emerges from the theoretical lens of queer ecology, which brings together queer theory and eco-criticism. 

  • All skill levels are encouraged to attend and all materials are provided
  • Doors open at 6pm, with the workshop beginning at 6.15pm
  • No food or drink is to be consumed in the library
