Sustainable textiles tour 3

Textiles waste is a huge issue – there is enough clothing in the world to clothe the next 6 generations, and sending our excess unwanted textiles overseas is creating huge environmental problems. So what are some solutions? 

Join us for a day out as we explore options for reducing textile waste:

• Upparel, who recycle textiles at their facility in Cranbourne West

• The Creative Community Space and the Fabric Re-Store – a social enterprise rescuing unwanted fabric for re-sale

• Resource Rescue Craft and Reverse Art Truck – rescuing all manner of textiles and craft materials for use in homes, schools and galleries

Lunch provided.

Accessibility: This workshop involves walking on uneven surfaces, standing and steps onto the bus. This tour is for those that are over 16 years of age.
