SUMMARY:EASTERN FRASER VALLEY

While working with these natural materials\, we’ll explore their histories\, ecological impacts\, and stories.Participants will explore cordage weaving and basic woodworking. We will meet at the picnic table near the zipline. This workshop is best suited for those aged 8+\, as cordage-making requires some dexterity.

His work bridges ecology and creativity\, offering new ways to relate to “invasive species” through ethically harvested\, repurposed plant materials. Since 2021\, the traveling initiative has collaborated with nonprofits and community groups across the Lower Mainland to offer workshops\, demos\, and talks that challenge dominant narratives about environment\, colonization\, and human exceptionalism.
