The Alba Tree symbolises new beginnings and hope, inspired by the word "Alba," meaning dawn.

Like the first light of day, it represents growth, change, and transformation.

More than a symbol, it is a community-driven public art project that will come to life during a two week period where The Alba Tree will be on display at The Arboretum in Pearl Beach.

​

The tree’s steel structure, enhanced with driftwood, will be built on-site, with the handcrafted clay

leaves added to the tree to reflect its rebirth.

To foster community involvement, free clay leaf-making workshops will be held, inviting people of all

ages to create unique leaves that will become part of the tree.

The transformation will be celebrated at an opening event on National Tree Day, Sunday, July 27.

​

After The Alba Tree showing all participants will receive their leaves, along with a thank-you card and a

link to a time-lapse video capturing the tree’s journey.
