Wild Imagination Open Call

Wild Imagination is a creative project inviting young people (under 30s) in East Sussex to reconnect with nature through art. We want to celebrate the beauty of native plants and fungi, encourage you to notice the species that share our everyday spaces and the important role they play in biodiversity.

As part of the project, we're inviting creatives of all kinds to respond to the theme:

Your Favourite UK Native Plant/Fungus

Whether you're inspired by a wildflower on your daily walk, a tree with personal significance, or a fungus discovered after rain, we'd love to see your creative response.

We welcome all creative mediums, including but not limited to: illustration, photography, poetry, painting and mixed media. 
You may submit up to 2 artworks.

Selected works will be featured in our online exhibition this October, alongside a series of plant-inspired creative events taking place throughout the summer.

Deadline: 26 June, 11:59 PM
