Community Nature Mandala Art

What is a Mandala?
​A Mandala is a design within a circle and mandala art is ancient - more than 2000 years old. They are found in many cultures and they symbolically represent life and its constant cycles and interconnection.  Nature mandalas are a way for people to strengthen the connective bond between themselves and nature. 
 
Nature mandalas are ephemeral which means they only last a short time. At the end of the day the Mandala will be cleaned up, with materials returned to nature and the site returned to its original state.

It is a fun activity open to all ages and abilities and no creative experience is necessary.

Ecofest 2021
With the support of Gladstone Regional Council, CRC will facilitate our nature mandala activity at Ecofest 2021!! This activity will be available at Ecofest on Sunday 6th June from 10am - 3pm at Tondoon Botanic Gardens.

Gladstone Harbour Festival 2021
The team from the Creative Recycling Centre invited Gladstone residents to help create a giant Mandala from local materials at this year’s Gladstone Harbour Festival as part of the Golding Art Tent.
 
The 3-metre diameter Mandala was made on Friday 2nd April between 9am and 3pm behind the Gladstone Ports Corporation Marina Stage at the Harbour Festival.
  
This project was kindly funded by Golding, Gladstone Festivals and Events and the Creative Recycling Centre.
