🐝 Bee Hotel

Over six weeks, artist Joanne Clark Joanne Ruth Clark Artist  worked with Years 5 & 6 students at Malvern Springs Primary School to develop a striking bee hotel. 🌱

The workshops began with participants learning about native bee habitats and their ecological importance. They then explored their ideas through drawings and 3D models, considering how to create a safe and functional sanctuary for local bees.

Through spatial problem-solving, experimentation and reflection, the workshop developed creativity and critical thinking skills in young people. 🎨

The final result is a collaborative bee hotel created by Joanne and the students. An operational sanctuary where bees can find shelter and children can observe and learn from these important pollinators. 💛

This project was part of the Together Creating: Creative Learning Artist Residency Program, proudly supported by the WA Government, Ellenbrook Arts and the City of Swan.

Ellenbrook Arts Presents

Three inspiring exhibitions now showing at Ellenbrook Arts HQ – explore contemporary printmaking, textile art, and reflections on Australia’s natural environment.

Gallery 1 – Garbage Girl by Dana Stoll

In Garbage Girl, Dana Stoll transforms secondhand materials into intricate embroidered artworks embellished with beads and sequins. Through careful hand stitching and repurposed textiles, Stoll celebrates creativity, sustainability, and the beauty of giving discarded objects a new life.

Gallery 2 – Monotypes by Den L Scheer

Den L Scheer celebrates the beauty and character of Australia’s native wildlife through the unique art of printmaking. Featuring expressive monotype prints of beloved Australian animals, this exhibition captures the spirit, movement, and individuality of creatures from our natural landscape. Rich in texture and detail, Monotypes offers a fresh and engaging perspective on the fauna that make Australia so distinctive.

Gallery 3 – What is Disappearing by Xiaoyu Yang

What is Disappearing is a captivating exhibition exploring the fragile beauty of native Australian flora.

Both poetic and timely, the exhibition celebrates Australia’s unique botanical heritage while encouraging us to notice, protect, and remember.

Life Drawing with Nalda Searles

📅 13 May 2026, Wednesday
🕕 Set up from 6:00 pm | Drawing starts 6:30 pm
📍 Ellenbrook Arts, 34 Main St, Ellenbrook

We are honoured to welcome acclaimed Western Australian fibre artist Nalda Searles as our special portraiture model for this Life Drawing session.

Based in Middle Swan, Nalda has spent decades shaping the Australian arts landscape through her deeply intuitive practice. Working with interpretive marks, found objects, and natural materials including bush plant fibres and hand-made string, her work reflects a profound connection to place, community, and storytelling.

Nalda has collaborated extensively with Indigenous women and artists across Western Australia, and has shared her knowledge through teaching at universities, learning institutions, and community art centres throughout Perth. Her works are held in prestigious national and international collections, and her bush camps have inspired generations of contemporary artists across disciplines.

This is a rare opportunity to draw from an artist whose life and practice are embedded in the textures and narratives of this land.

✏️ All skill levels welcome
🎨 Materials: BYO or basic materials available

Join us for an inspiring evening of observation, creativity, and connection.
