Renewal Society repair events & RE-ART project
Greening Greenfield
Greening Greenfield loves collaborations and is celebrating and funding the synchronicity of two partner organizations who wanted to put on repair / reuse / repurpose-type events this year:
Redistro / Renewal Society project
Redistro is a mutual aid collective dedicated to building community locally through the redistribution of our shared abundance. Their community members are planning a series of 10 focused workshops building on the very popular repair fairs that have been held from time to time in Franklin County. What if people could not only have their household items repaired, but learn how to do it themselves? This vision is actualized in THE RENEWAL SOCIETY project, which focuses on re-using and reclaiming through the art and craft of repair. Participants will learn specific skills to extend the life of their own household belongings.
LAVA Center / RE-ART project
The LAVA Center is a community arts and humanities space / arts incubator / black box theater that is presenting RE-ART, a series of 6 sessions creating art from reclaimed, repurposed and reused materials
All events take place at The LAVA Center, 324 Main St in Greenfield on Saturdays.
Renewal Society workshops will begin promptly at 9:30am, with doors open at 9:15; and will run until 11:30, with a break. Check back later for more information & remaining registration links, as they become available. See also Renewal Society LinkTree.
RE-ART workshops will run from noon until 2:00 on the same every-other-week schedule for the first 6 Saturdays, and will be followed at the end of the series by an art show. For more information including about registering see the LAVA website. where registration for all RE-ART events is now open.
