About this event
Our all-new Baltic Garden is starting to bloom - and now it’s your turn! Help us create a garden from cardboard and recycled materials.
Our all-new Baltic Garden is starting to bloom - and now it’s your turn! Join us to help create a garden entirely from cardboard and other recycled materials. No watering required, just imagination.
Design and build garden structures using cardboard engineering. Think planters, fences, winding paths, even tiny sheds and pergolas inspired by Baltic’s new outdoor space.
Make colourful flowers, leafy plants, climbing vines, garden creatures, and recycled decorations. Bring your garden to life with pattern, colour and texture.
Create bugs, birds and pollinators to populate your green space, or invent brand‑new species that could only grow here.
Together, we’ll transform the space into a lush, lively cardboard garden bursting with creativity, playful construction and community spirit.
Come make, imagine and grow your own garden.
