The Eden Project

Sowing the seeds of change: The Eden Project is working with others towards the understanding and implementation of the principles of Agenda 21, the framework for sustainable development. The living theatre of plants and people.

The Eden Project is a gateway into the world of plants and people. A meeting place for all to discover how we depend on plants and how we can help to manage and conserve them for our mutual survival. Communication is the Eden Project's heartbeat. We would like to encourage visitors to take a fresher more direct view of their world. To enhance the appreciation of the Eden Project's fabulous plant collections, we are commissioning artists working in a wide range of media; automata, sculpture, animation, puppetry, live music and performance to enhance interpretation.

At the Eden Project, visitors have opportunities to participate in trails to link personal interests to the stories eg plants and music, plants and health, plants and sport, plants and art etc. There will be themed events from tea tasting to chocolate days and "hands on" workshops from performance arts to horticulture, and from cooking to dyeing etc. If you are interested in food, health, conservation, music, gardening, theatre, art, craft, energy, beauty, adventure, business, civilization, cosmetics, engineering, architecture, fashion, travel, world culture, local culture, anthropology, politics and much more... then we have something to entertain you. We want to interest the widest possible audience in our work, and hopefully inspire you to become involved in what we are about, at whatever level you want.
