Acknowledgment of country

Polyglot acknowledges that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we live and create, and we pay our respects to Elders past and present. For more than 65,000 years, children and families have created and played here, and we are grateful to make our art on this country too.

Workshop

Twitchers (online)

Participants are invited to delve into the fascinating world of bird watching.

This online workshop demonstrates the endless possibilities for creativity and play with simple materials. Polyglot artists guide children through the process of making everything you might want to go ‘twitching’: binoculars, a logbook and of course… birds! Once everything is ready, the birds can be hidden around the house, garden or classroom, and the adventure can begin.

Twitchers is designed to be an on-demand offering. Online workshops work best when participants are in separate locations (such as remote learning from home). If you are interested in an activity for students who are together in a classroom, we recommend our in-person offerings, which are delivered in line with Polyglot’s COVID-safe policy.
