UpCycle Festival at Pretlow Branch Library (Norfolk)

The 3rd Annual Upcycle Festival brings together environmental organizations, local artists and makers to showcase innovative ways to repurpose materials and reduce waste, including crafting and composting. Attendees will participate in hands-on workshops, view upcycled art and explore a variety of ways to cut down on waste, conserve resources and create something new and meaningful by taking old materials found at home and creating something new and unique! New this year – Clothing Swap! Bring a bag/box of clothing/footwear to drop off and “shop” around for new-to-you items! The UpCycle Festival is free and family-friendly. Most activities will take place at the Randi Marston Peterson Maker Studio, Youth Services Program Room and outside on the patio. UpCycle Festival Saturday, Nov. 14 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Mary D.
