Queer gardening sessions

30.03.2025, 14:00 — 18:00 

Organised by Eline De Clercq, MORPHO, Kunsthal Extra City

On Sunday, March 30 from 2 to 6 PM artist Eline De Clercq will host the first of a series of Queer Gardening Sessions as part of her research residency at MORPHO vzw. Through these sessions, she will gradually bid farewell to Gesamthof, a trans and lesbian garden that will cease to exist as it is being repurposed. The wildflowers and plants from the garden will be distributed to the queer community to find a new home in other gardens. From January to October, various Sunday gardening sessions are planned for repotting and sharing plants. This activity is aimed at the LGBTQIA+ community.

As part of the sessions, there will be a free guided tour (approximately 45 minutes) of the garden. During the tour, you will learn more about the plants and their ecological value. The tour starts at 3:00 PM and is free of charge.

Agenda for March 30:
lots of spring flowers will have appeared by now, little Dog violets, lesser Celandine, Crocus, and also early summer flowers appear above ground: Salomon's seal, broad-leaved enchanter's nightshade, Clematis old man's beard, Alchemilla Xantochlora, Paris, Anchusa, Comfry...
