We produce a massive amount of waste each year. How can we live more intentionally and make greener choices in our everyday lives?

Join us as we explore practical, creative and community-led ways we can all take action together and avoid greenwashing.

Here’s what’s happening:

4:00 – 5:00 pm | Create Bin Stickers Start the evening with a creative session led by Kris and James from Bugs n Slugs. Design your own stickers to raise awareness and make your bins stand out. All materials provided.

Discover visible mending as a creative way to extend the life of your clothing, bags and fabric items. Led by Donna Gordge from Stitch Paint Burn Studio, you’ll learn different stitching techniques to repair or decorate textiles. You can create a patch to take home or bring along items you’d like to mend or personalise. No sewing experience needed.

🌼 Free natural cleaning products to take home will be available at the end of the evening.
