WORKSHOPS AT THE MAKESHOP
The Neighbourhood Makeshop has now wrapped up for the summer.
Over the past few months, neighbours, artists and first-time makers have come together to build, repair, customise and create — and to test what’s possible when we share tools, time and ideas.
We’re currently exploring funding to bring the Makeshop back in a bigger way this September, with the possibility of some smaller invite-only sessions in the meantime.
If you’ve got questions or ideas about workshops at the Makeshop, send Caitlin email on caitlin@olddiorama.com.
WHO LEADS THE WORKSHOPS?
The workshops are delivered and facilitated by artist and community organiser Caitlin Strongarm.
A bit about the artist:
Hi! I’m Caitlin, or Caito; an anti-capitalist artist, community organiser, facilitator and maker. I’m a self-taught, curious and inventive DIYer who loves to explore creative-reuse of all manner of materials and mediums; sewing and textiles, wood and metalworking, paint, clay, plastic junk… I love to play with it all and see what can be made! I facilitate accessible workshops where anyone can come and develop their own makings skills, and curate immersive spaces for communities to connect and collaborate together.
