Curbside Collective (Our TAFE Group) will be sharing The Bower Tent at the Newtown festival this
year!
With more than 80,000
visitors each year, the Newtown festival is unmissable for a large
part of the Inner West population, so it was unmissable for us too! Curbside Collective
will show the public the pieces of furniture they have amazingly been
restoring for the past four months, as well as demonstrating a few tricks of the trade.
Be amongst the first
ones to admire them: come and say hello to Fiona & Emmanuel who will be there
all day. Fiona will explain how she and the others managed to
transform ugly or broken furniture donated to The Bower into amazingly beautiful ones ready to be be
presented at the Finders Keepers Market, one of the most popular
markets in town!
The festival will be in
the Camperdown Memorial Rest Park on Sunday November 13th,
from 9.30am to 5.30pm. The Newtown Neighbourhood Centre asks only a gold coin donation as an entry fee - it's their major fundraiser, and with your help they can continue the many community programs they offer in the Newtown Area.
The Bower and Curb Collective will be sharing a tent in the Local Vocal Village - you'll find us on the Newtown Festival official maps - and on the Australia Street side of the park just past the stage. We'll be next to other social enterprises and community groups including ex TAFE students, Hobo Gro, PLACE initiatives, Salvation Army Groups and many, many more
Don't miss this
opportunity to realise how to transform trash into treasure and to
learn one tip or two to try it yourself at home!
