• Collective Collage Making – With magazines, paper, cutouts, stickers, pens and more, unleash your creativity and share your vision onto a collective collage board throughout the day. The collective collage will act as a living document of the event, as well as a legacy piece which will be displayed digitally after the event. Drop in throughout the day.
• Community Clothes Swap – Come with something old, leave with something new! A clothes swap to breathe new life and love to your preloved clothing. Bring an item to exchange for another. It’s free, sustainable, and helps the community. Drop in throughout the day.
