Our friends at the Shoalhaven Regional Art Gallery are holding an exciting exhibition by renowned artist and author Jeannie Baker, celebrating her book Desert Jungle.

We were so excited, we decided to hold an art competition!

Children aged 3-12 years are invited to create a collage of their own desert jungle, inspired by Jeanie Baker's unique style such as utilising natural materials in the collage. Visit the exhibition at Shoalhaven Regional Gallery for inspiration!

The winner will receive a copy of one of Jeannie's beloved picture books.
