RUMMAGE

Promoting a culture of re-use at the GSA

  • Held on the the 3rd Wednesday of every month, RUMMAGE is an opportunity for you to bring along something old for something new.
  • The Art School Bar
  • November 19th / January 14th
  • 11 – 3pm

Through Rummage we hope to encourage a culture of re-use and exchange within the GSA. Every item that is brought to Rummage is weighed and the total weight of items we receive is then converted into carbon emissions saved by items assumed not going to landfill or being purchased new. To date we have diverted nearly 2 tonnes of stuff from landfill.

We’re going to be holding a special Waste Makes at this Rummage (In preparation for the drafty nights ahead!)
Join us to make draft excluders from scrap and discarded textiles. We’d love to actually prove this has saved energy from escaping from your flats so be sure to bring your heating bills along with you so we can start a comparison.
