A merchant keeps a wild parrot in a beautiful cage, believing comfort and care are enough to make her happy. But when she asks him to carry a message to her family deep in the forest, his journey through the wild reveals a deeper truth — that what she truly longs for is the freedom to live as herself.

This immersive outdoor performance blends storytelling, movement, song, colourful costumes, and character play in the lush surroundings of the Gardens. Inspired by a tale of a wild parrot and her longing for freedom, the performance invites families to reflect on belonging and the joy of living close to nature.

Have you ever stopped to notice the shapes that exist not in an object itself, but in the space around it? This is the concept of negative space — and once you see it, you'll never look at the world quite the same way again!

In this 1.5-hour workshop for parent-and-child pairs, you'll be given a viewfinder — a small card with a rectangular window — and invited to explore the garden around you, discovering surprising shapes and compositions hiding in plain sight. Using what you find, you'll create your very own piece of art inspired by the world through your viewfinder.

Come ready to slow down, look closely, and see the garden with fresh eyes. All are welcome.
