Community Ephemeral Art-making at Codornices Park – Agapanthus Project 2021

  • Codornices Park 1201 Euclid Avenue Berkeley, CA, 94708 United States (map)

Free, public, all-ages event, wheelchair accessible

An RSVP on the Facebook event page would be a big help!
(but no worries if you're not on Facebook).

Join us for an afternoon of playful collaborative sculpture-making using dried Agapanthus flowers at Berkeley’s Codornices Park. This is the latest installment of the Agapanthus Project, begun in 2010.

People of all ages and abilities welcome.

After Agapanthus flowers are dried, the tubular stalks are light and rigid, and the tufts of the flowers (technically the umbellate inflorescences) are like Velcro, allowing us to construct multi-level free-standing sculptures!

Maybe you’ll have a picnic lunch and/or a stroll at the Berkeley Rose Garden across the street before we begin? Or stay afterwards for the sunset – great view from the top of the Rose Garden!

This event is wheelchair accessible. Restrooms on site. Codornices Park is well known for its 40-foot concrete hill slide and tot play area.
