This event will show you how you can increase the lifespan of your belongings, encourage you to engage a creative reuse mindset, and help build community through skill sharing. 

Free coffee, snacks, and raffles for all attendees.

Activities include:

  • Mending and upcycling clothes
  • Basic bike maintenance
  • Repairing outdoor gear
  • Fixing broken jewelry
  • Tutorials on DIY crafts from “waste” items
    • Rugs from old t-shirts and fabric
    • Self-watering pots made from old soda bottles
    • Baskets made from plastic grocery bags
  • Tech recycling in partnership with Student Technology Services (STS)

Destress during finals, hang out with friends, and do something good for the earth while you’re at it! Bring your old/broken stuff or just yourself; leave with new repair and creative reuse skills.
