Description
Join us for fun in the sun (hopefully!*) with sustainability-themed activities for all the senses!
Try your hand at t-shirt tie-dying, master the art of badge making and transform your rags to riches at our clothes upcycling stations. Recharge between activities with pedal-powered fresh fruit smoothies, poured straight from our smoothie bike, or just sit back and soak up the sounds of our funky fresh disco soundtrack.
No experience necessary - just drop in!
We'll provide second-hand tees and tote bags, but you're more than welcome to bring your own items and give them a new lease of life.
*We're keeping everything crossed for some September sunshine, but please note that this event will be moved to The Students' Union at Glenside if it rains.
