A New Year of Wishes

The Sustainable Wishing Tree, community sculpture that was created by members of the public at the Lane Cove Men’s Shed, led and designed by sculptor Mark Swartz was completed late last year before we closed for the holidays. Now with the tree on display Centrehouse & Gallery Lane Cove started the new year with some great kids and grandparents workshops to create the beautiful paper wishes to complete the community project.

We had french paper artist Marine Coutroutsios here to help the groups create special paper wishes on seed paper to hang on the wishing tree. These  papers are filled seeds from native Australian flowers so we will wait & watch to see if any of these wishes fall and turn into new flowers.

One of our wonderful groups hard at work

                                        some of the lovely wishes.....

Please stop and read these very sweet wishes if you are passing by !
