ReNew Art Faire preview:⁠
⁠
Image 1: qathet Flax to Linen -⁠
From seed to shirt in local dirt! Led by collaborators and community driven, this grass-roots endeavour invites us to connect more deeply with the land, the fibre that we wear, each other, and our Selves through the re-animation of traditional skills. Join textile artists Amber Gould and Juliette Jarvis to bring head, heart, and hands together with remedial intention for our earth and our souls. Learn how to grow, process, spin, and weave flax seed into heirloom quality fabric (or just a few of the steps along the way) and co-create community!⁠
⁠
Image 2: Kindred ReBuild - ⁠
A non-profit project with inclusion Powell River that collects furniture and building material donations to keep them out of the landfill. We turn these items into affordable, quality goods for the community. Our goal is to help protect the environment and make sure everyone can access what they need at an affordable price.⁠

Learn more about these projects and many more on Saturday April 25, 2026 from 10-4pm at Dwight Hall.⁠

The ReNew Art Faire is free event. It will feature the work of over 30 artists from qathet, Vancouver Island and surrounding areas who are pushing the limits of traditional craftsmanship by using upcycled, recycled and sustainable materials.⁠
