  • Get started on your Lockdown Legacy panel
    19:30 -21:00
    2021.02.01


    The Covid-19 pandemic has affected people in different ways. As well as suffering, sorrow, fear, loneliness, hard work for many, it’s also been a time to reflect on how we relate to our environment and how we could do things differently in future in our local area.

    Sustainable Merton is working in partnership with Loving Earth Project to explore these questions.

    This Zoom event will get you started on making a textile panel in any style. You’ll be invited to do a little preparation from home in advance of the event if you wish and will be welcome to join our online chats for panel-makers as your panel progresses, if you like.
    Led by Sue Tyldesley and Lottie Percival

    Free . Advance booking essential

    Nous nous retrouvons ce mardi 16 février à 20h30 (heure française pour un nouveau temps d’échange informel sur zoom.
     Ce groupe a pour objectif de donner à ceux qui le souhaitent d’échanger autour de leurs préoccupations liées à la protection de l’environnement : quelles sont nos questions, nos engagements, nos difficultés, nos idées, etc… L’échange peut se faire à partir de la méditation vécue ensemble lors de notre première rencontre ou que vous trouverez désormais sur le site  https://projetparamourdelaterre.wordpress.com/participation/
    Ce n’est pas un groupe pour faire avancer la diffusion du projet Par amour de la terre ou pour réfléchir à la création textile. Si certains souhaitent créer un autre groupe en ce sens et réfléchir à plusieurs à comment lancer des ateliers, faire connaître le projet… c’est tout à fait possible : parlons-en !
    Pour recevoir le lien Zoom ou pour contacter le group francophone, contacter paramourdelaterre.2020@gmail.com en direct.
