Part of a series

Celebrate reuse, creativity and exploration in this tactile and sensory environment.

In this workshop, you’ll work with Studio TIP to turn real-world surplus materials – the kind that normally gets overlooked after mass production – into playful objects and artworks. Offcuts, trims, odd shapes and leftovers. Stuff that didn’t make the cut. Until now.

Guided by a material library, we’ll teach the principles of reuse, remix and circular design through hands-on play. Think less classroom, more scrapyard meets sketchbook. You’ll test, build, mess up and make something weird and brilliant.

This is not a structured class – it's a space for children to lead their own play, build, stack, sort and invent. Mess is welcome and no rules apply!

No experience needed, just curiosity.
