Oysters in my Pocket
with Honey Fingers


12:30pm - 1:15pm / Mercator Lawn
Please RSVP by ‘adding on’ to your Humanitix ticket purchase.




Every honey season, each bee makes a tiny amount of beeswax by excreting scales of wax from their abdomen. The bees collect this wax, soften it in their mandibles, and add a little to a beautiful and complex honeycomb structure.

Every year, so many of us enjoy eating oysters and washing them down with good wine.









A 45 minute aromatic candle-making workshop using by-products of both beekeeping and the hospitality industry: oyster shells and beeswax.

We appreciate how much effort goes into making beeswax and celebrate this process by creating little vessels to light small fires.

Please join us in making a little ritual dedicated to small moments of sustainability.


Presented by Nic Dowse and Georgah Crane of the Honey Fingers Collective.
