Handicraft Festival, artisan and upcycling from „Przerób-My”/„Let’s re-use it”.
One only needs a little imagination to re-use things that on the outside maybe look like they should be thrown away, and give them a completely new purpose, becoming in the process highly original decorations. We warmly invite you to take part in a pro-ecological initiative called „Przerób -My”, or in English „Let’s re-use it.” which promotes the idea of upcycling and re-processing. This event will showcase the handicraft work of various artisans, allow you to meet with DIY (do it yourself) experts, and take part in workshops on the topic of how to breathe new life into old objects. This event will also see the „Masters”, in other words three popular and creative female bloggers: Yan Ciesla, the master of eco carpentry, Malgorzata Margas from the furniture renovation workshop Dekudeku, experts from the macramé workshop Roots of Macramé as well as Dorota Teritz who will demonstrate how to paint silk.
During the weekend they’ll also be a Fair, during which you’ll be able to buy these unique hand-made products.
Taking part in the demonstrations and workshops is free of charge. School groups however must register first: przerobmy@pimpit.pl
