I Am Nature

I Am Nature is an interactive show and workshop series that connects children and their adults to nature and native animals, through movement, song, a natural installation, and narration.

The development of this project was first supported through the New Ideas Lab by ArtPlay. In 2021, it was adapted to be delivered online for a partnership between ArtPlay and City of Melbourne’s Family Services clients. In 2022, it was presented in person with a series of workshops and a sold out number of shows at ArtPlay during Children's Week in October 2022. I Am Nature was developed with Brimbank City Council through a series of community workshops and shows.
