As part of the Shepparton Festival, local Indigenous artist, Chris Walker and RiverConnect invite you to explore creative art techniques while learning about local ecosystems to foster a deeper connection to the land. Dip inspiration from the river water in a guided watercolour workshop in the river environment.
