SUMMARY:Wire Wrap Pendant Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Add personality to your favourite bag with a handmade charm that’s completely unique to you. In this creative\, hands-on workshop\, you’ll design and build your own custom bag charm using a mix of new and repurposed materials. We’ll start by creating a soft\, textured element using upcycled fabric or t-shirt material\, which you’ll cut and braid before attaching it to your charm ring. From there\, you’ll explore basic jewelry-making techniques—learning how to use tools like pliers\, crimpers\, and jump rings to attach beautiful beads to wire. Next\, you’ll design another charm element using thicker cord and statement beads for a bold\, layered look. To finish it off\, you’ll add chain segments and charms\, connecting everything together to create a dynamic\, multi-textured piece. Throughout the workshop\, you’ll have access to a large selection of beads\, charms\, chains\, and repurposed materials to make your charm truly one-of-a-kind. You’ll also learn tips for sourcing and transforming thrifted jewelry—like old necklaces—into new creative pieces. This workshop is perfect for anyone who loves crafting\, upcycling\, or adding a personal touch to their accessories. All materials included. No experience necessary. Fun for all craftiness levels! This event is recommended to 18+. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

SUMMARY:Thinking Together: A Space to Reflect
DESCRIPTION:A reflective conversation for people working with community to slow down and explore the deeper questions shaping our work. People who hold space for others need space held for them too. People working with and caring about community often carry a lot in the spaces they work. Thinking Together is a space to slow down and surface wisdom together — to pause and to reflect. This gathering explores agency: where we can influence change\, what may or may not be ours to carry\, and where we might have more agency than we think — in the choices we make and the spaces we inhabit.__________________________Who this is for: We welcome people working in and alongside community in many different roles\, organizations\, and lived relationships with community – including those in nonprofit organizations\, grassroots initiatives\, government\, and research.Whether you work\, volunteer\, or identify as community yourself\, you are welcome.__________________________What to expect: Guided individual and collective reflection and conversation Space to reflect\, listen\, and share perspectives No presentations 🙂
