PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Our focus is on turning a waste item into a new product that is far better in design and utility when compared to its original state. We want to influence the consumer mindset by propagating environment-friendly consumption.
At Remakery, we therefore work with the waste collectors and scrap dealers across India to collect the waste and upcycle it. We use tyre tube, juice cartons, milk packets, beer cans, wine bottles and almost everything that has been thrown away, to give it a new life in the form of accessories, furniture, stationary and items of home décor. Nothing is wasted.Rethink, Recycle, Recreate!
At Remakery, we also curate regular weekend workshops on several themes. These range from DIY activities, ‘how to grow your own food’, ‘sustainable living’ etc. The space also hosts weekly ‘One Night Stand’ events every Wednesday, that bring in some of the best artists and activists activists from across the country. These events help facilitate an engage in dialogue and conversation with our audience and the people from the city.
