SUMMARY:Zero Waste Oversized Tee workshop
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Envirohub and Emroce\nDiscover the art of zero-waste fashion and learn how to make your own oversized T-shirt from scratch. \nIn this hands-on workshop with Emroce designer Emma La Rocca\, you’ll explore simple zero-waste pattern-making techniques to design your own oversized tee. This innovative method uses the entire piece of fabric\, meaning little to no textile waste. Rather than working from conventional patterns that often leave fabric offcuts behind\, this approach respects the creation and use of the fabric in its entirety. \nWith Emma’s guidance\, participants will create a mini paper pattern for their perfect oversized tee. We’ll then cut and sew the tee using your own fabric. This workshop is ideal for creative beginners\, sewing enthusiasts\, fashion students and anyone curious about sustainable textiles and making clothes more thoughtfully. \nWhat to Bring:\n– Minimum 1 metre x full fabric width of your chosen fabric\n– Helpful but optional: Domestic sewing machine (we have a few spaces available for those who don’t have their own machine. Please select that type of ticket if it is still available when you book)\n– Paper scissors and fabric scissors\n– Long ruler\n– Set square\n– Cellotape\n– Tape measure\n– Pens or pencil\n– A4 paper\n– Binding for T-shirt edges\n– Chalk\, soap or fabric pen\n– Snips \nSpaces limited to 20 participants – bookings essential. \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Opening: Āwhiowhio | Matariki
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Art + Body Creative Studio\nĀwhiowhio is an exhibition that views creativity as a force of movement\, transformation\, and renewal. Like a swirling wind that gathers ideas and clears new paths\, this collection explores art as an elemental energy—one expressed through the physical rhythm of the etched mark and the pressure of imprinting. \nĀwhiowhio reveals the creative journey of a series of community workshops where participants explore drypoint etching and various printmaking techniques. The resulting works form the exhibition itself\, serving as a visual trace of shared experimentation and intent. \nFind out more
