VENUE: THE PLAYTRAIL COMMUNITY FRIDGE
With Conor O'Kane/Social Farms and Gardens
oin Conor O’Kane of Social Farms and Gardens NI and take part in the ancient art of cob-making. By taking part in this Meitheal (old Irish word for communities coming together for the greater good) you’ll be contributing the building of a community pizza oven at the Playtrail. Be prepared to take your shoes and socks off, roll up your sleeves and feel the earth beneath your feet! It’s messy, creative fun that anyone can take part in. You’ll also get to take a piece of cob home with you!
Drop in activity, show up any time.
Age Range: All are welcome.
Part of the Acorn Farm Growing Challenges & Activities programme, delivered by Social Farms and Gardens NI
ARTITUDE CLIMATE FESTIVAL
A free three day community-led celebration of art, climate action and the circular economy.
Showcasing creative, community-led responses to the climate emergency, the festival is delivered in collaboration with The Gathering, Zero Waste North West (ZWNW), Northern Ireland Resources Network (NIRN), Environmental Justice Network Ireland (EJNI) and Making Relatives - a visit of water and land protectors from Ojibwe Nation, US.
Emerging from The Playhouse's Artitude: Climate, Culture and Circularity project, the festival is part of a unique and transformational programme of activity, using the arts and creative practice to engage communities in the DCSDC area in exploring climate action and the circular economy, with a view to encouraging positive behavioural change.
The Playhouse works with partners Zero Waste North West, Northern Ireland Resources Network, Queens University and Derry City and Strabane District Council to use the arts to co-ordinate and deliver the 18 month programme.
