Make your own garment from recycled materials!
This workshop will be held in person at the Cockburn Youth Centre. Working in teams of 2-3 people, participants will create their own garments from recyclable materials in a 3-hour workshop to promote team collaboration and sustainability.
Mannequins with 'shell outfits' will be provided for young people to use as a foundation for their project. This would look like a recycled plastic dress or top and pants.
Presented in partnership with Cockburn Youth Services.

About the Youth Week WA KickstART Festival
Presented by Propel Youth Arts WA, the KickstART Festival has been the flagship event of Youth Week WA for 12 years running. KickstART offers over 60 free events - including workshops, talks, performances, mentorships, exhibitions, markets, and other special events - between 8 - 16 April, for young people aged 12-26.
Due to growing concerns about COVID-19 and the anticipated continued spread of Omicron across our communities in Boorloo (Perth) and WA, the Propel team has decided to pivot towards digital and hybrid formats for the delivery of the KickstART Festival this April.
The Youth Week WA KickstART Festival 2022 is presented by Propel Youth Arts WA and is funded by the Government of Western Australia through the Department of Communities and the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries. KickstART is also supported by Lotterywest, the City of Perth, the City of Stirling, the City of Fremantle, and the City of Vincent.
