Climate Looming

…but not in the way you might think! You're invited to join Atelier Aloera, Seniors for Climate, and Suzuki Elders in this intergenerational paper quilt-weaving workshop (weaving, hence looming…) where our climate perspectives are joined together in unified hope. Hosted by Wild Bird Trust BC, we will start with science-based communication about protection and restoration initiatives our team is working on, then open up the floor to imagining futures that could come from collective efforts through scrapbooking. The final product will be a co-created “quillt”, a piece of artwork with embedded climate intentions and curiosities. Be part of this meaningful intergenerational dialogue! Admission is free and we encourage you to bring friends from all walks of life! Coffee, tea, hot water, and some light snacks and fruit will be provided. Agenda for the day: TBA* Agenda will be posted closer to the date. For City of Vancouver residents, please note that October 17 is the 2026 Municipal Election. Please vote and make your voices heard ahead of time either Advance Voting Day (October 3, 7, 10, 13) or before or after the event on October 17.
