The exhibition includes paintings, drawings, mosaics and sculptures highlighting the importance of Maroondah's rare and endangered vegetation and wildlife.

The exhibition aims to raise awareness of threatened species and allow seeing the local natural environment through the lens of neurodiverse artists and artists living with a disability.
