1pm – 2pm : A Lunch with Ideas is provoked by Teresa Dillon, an artist and researcher, who writes, studies, performs and tells stories about technology, urban life and sound.

2pm – 6pm : In Recycled Rug-Making with Dawn Giles make yarn from old t-shirts to crochet into a hardwearing rug using wool scraps. Materials will be provided but, as this is a recycling project, do bring an old t-shirt and wool if you have them. Over the past 10 years clothing has become the fastest growing waste stream in the UK, with 235m items expected to be sent to landfill this spring. But even clothes too damaged to be worn can be recycled as we will show. SIGN UP TO THIS WORKSHOP ON EVENTBRITE HERE
