Jason Chongue and The Plant Society
We are delighted to confirm that the much anticipated ZOOM lecture by Jason Chongue will go ahead on Thursday 16 June.
Jason Chongue is the Creative Director of design studio and store The Plant Society. After gaining a wealth of experience working as an architect and interior designer, Jason merged his passion for plants and design by establishing The Plant Society in 2016, focusing on designing with plants in small urban spaces. Since being established, The Plant Society has grown exponentially and has attracted a loyal following in Australia and globally. Jason regularly travels internationally to pass on his knowledge to aspiring plant enthusiasts in plant workshops.
Most recently, Jason was the Creative Director of the Garden State Festival in Victoria, a partnership between the Plant Society and the Yarra City Council. Commenting on the Festival Jason said: We strive to celebrate the modern gardener through a festival that celebrates the skill set gardeners have perfected over generations. It is time to show that gardening is its own artform. We may be an extension of our plants – however we are artists with a palette oozing with atmosphere.
This is sure to be an informative and inspirational talk.
