- Join us to celebrate Sustainable Fashion Week (SFW) in Newtown! We have teamed up with Textile Junkies to bring you a host of fun activities and workshops.
FREE ENTRY and FREE WORKSHOPS
See programme below:
13:00 – 16:30:
- Sustainable market
- Clothes swap – bring your clothes, shoes and accessories (all ages) to swap. • Get a token for each item you bring! • Don’t have anything to bring? Join Keep Wales Tidy to partake in a litter pick and get some free tokens to exchange for any items.
- Mending workshops – do you have a garment that needs repairing? bring it on the day to get fixed (simple repairs and visible mending)
- Clothes upcycling workshop – Bring clothes for upcycling – give new life to an old garment! You might want to bring something from home or you might find an item in the clothes swap that you want to upcycle – get stuck in and learn new skills!
