The Re-Creators skills-based upcycling workshops enable adults and children to practically repurpose and save money.
Our workshops enable the community to practical Reimagine Waste into Value through skills, design and tool know how.
Upcycling workshops provide positivity from a sense of accomplishment when completing a project and the joy from making as well saving money and our planet.
The community gain practical, resilient skills such as sewing, woodwork, power tools, crocheting, furniture refurbishment and general upcycled art design. They provide a positive example of climate action, instil positive well-being through mindful making and save money. In addition, there are income opportunities for artists in the community who struggle to find meaningful work.
