Image for event: Up-cycling Winter Workshop
Cancelled

Up-cycling Winter Workshop

Kids and teens, come make an up-cycled craft, learn about climate change, and have some hot chocolate.

We will use recycled and upcycled materials to create small projects such as bird feeders, mini guitars, or even simple jewelry like necklaces. Alongside the workshop, there will be a small presentation about climate change and the effects it has on our planet. Hot chocolate will be provided. Our goal is to have fun, learn something new, and explore how to up-cycle materials in creative ways.

A Community Partner Program, with Massey Green, sponsored by Eco clubs UNA Canada- pending full details
