Millicent was recently the venue for a weekend of activities, workshops and other opportunities to learn to live sustainably.
Wattle Range Council invited people to ‘Re-A-Range’ their thinking, try something a little different and expand their knowledge on sustainable practices.
It was an initiative of the council’s Climate Change Action Plan Group, Re-A-Range.
Talks about the fabulous ‘Rationally Wasted’ Exhibition were given by artists Selena Smith and Diana Perkins.
Their ‘Rationally Wasted Exhibition’ opened on May 5 at the Millicent Gallery and has been extended until mid-June.
Over the Re-A-Range weekend, the duo offered workshops on making a bag from an upcycled t-shirt and creating repurposed flowers from old books and maps.
The weekend included the Millicent Show Grounds Car Boot Sale and Market; extended trading by the Millicent Op Shops and a ‘How to Grow your very own Mushrooms’ class.
