Places for Culture By Marc Bright and Milly Hine

A Creative Restoration Project for Lovers of Earth!!

This program is based at Serpentine Ridge Conscious Living Healing Retreat, nestled amongst the beautiful bushland of Widgee Mountain, Widgee, Queensland, Australia. This divine space is a 50-acre wildlife nature property, showcasing habitat restoration, Art from the Heart, fun, family-friendly experiences in nature, and invites access to media presentations and information featuring cultural wisdom and knowledge.

Places for Culture is an initiative supported by Bush Mountain Trust, a not-for-profit Trust that supports small events, workshops, and campout gatherings for local and international families with a genuine interest in working and celebrating together in developing a conscious connection to country and culture here at Serpentine Ridge.

Key Initiatives include

“Hands and Feet on the Land” features private group gatherings, walking and Talking Hikes, along creekside and mountainside pathways, observing wildlife and native garden corridor spaces.

Visiting Serpentine Ridge Native Nursery, and learning about plant propagation, potting and plant care skills.

Planting bush food, discovering bush medicine and bush floristry in the native gardens.

“Art on Wood” with Artist In Residence Milly Hine, including natural cultural design, painting, carving and decoration.

Manual Arts Skills with Marc Bright featuring Wood Finishing and on-site place-making installation.

Bush Mountain Cinema media sessions featuring viewing of award-winning environmental/cultural short documentary “Saving Mary” and short documentary “Connecting to Country – Old Way New Way”. You can also enjoy access to our Open Source Places for Culture Living Stories Media Library.

We invite you to come out & be a part of Places for Culture, join in with us, to see what we do on the land here, and we are happy to be seen as a sample example of how you can connect and create together with the land!!
