Crafting Connections

Join Eden Project Communities at Treverbyn Hall for this free community event!

Join us for this one-day event as we celebrate and explore the amazing things that can happen when people come together in St Austell

Whether you already run your own community project, you’ve got an idea you want to explore or you’re keen to find a small step you could take – come along to hear local stories, take part in creative workshops and network with community-minded people.

It’s a jam-packed programme!

Guest speaker Pat Smith AKA Action Nan is a community champion, beach cleaner and co-founder of the Final Straw Cornwall campaign.
Pat is on a mission to eradicate single use plastic for cleaner seas and coastlines. Pat will be talking about her community work across Cornwall and St Austell and how small steps can make a big difference.

Plus, two great activity-based workshops everyone will get to experience.

Tidal Terrariums

Upcycling at its best – we’ll be giving a new lease of life and purpose to ghost fishing nets collected from Cornish beaches! Bring along a washed-out glass jar to make your own hanging terrarium to take home (we’ll have some spare jars available too).

Crafting Connections

Find your inner creativity as we bring community, craft, and nature together to create bunting inspired by community connection.

We’re even hosting a Big Lunch and invite everyone to share food and conversation. If you’re able to, we’d love for you to bring something shareable to the Big Lunch table!

Whatever your area of community focus come and enjoy an opportunity to craft local community conversations and connections.

This Spring we’re running a series of events just like this one across the whole of the UK. Join in and be part of something bigger – let’s make positive change together
