Everything Circulates at Kanneltalo – Circular economy event on clothing and art

Once again, the Everything Circulates circular economy event will provide Helsinki residents with tips on how to make sustainable choices in their everyday life. The main themes of this year’s event are clothing and art.

The Everything Circulates event will be held at Kanneltalo on 19 May from 14.00 to 19.00. At the event, the City’s circular economy operators and partners will present themselves, host workshops and other activities and share information about sustainable everyday life.

You can participate in activities such as a workshop on sustainable everyday life and a ‘Circular Economy Promises’ print workshop, where attendees will print promises on bags made from recycled materials at the Uusix workshop. Attendees will also be provided with guidance on how to repair clothing with embroidery, and how to repair and spruce up a national costume.

The programme also features a lecture on ecological clothing, info sessions and multilingual materials on sustainable everyday life, a circular economy fashion show and an audio work entitled A Manifesto for the Living World.

The event will feature a clothing exchange point and a sales point providing products made from recycled materials by Uusix.

You can get into the game-day spirit at Kanneltalo with a game of poop basketball – a game on sewer etiquette where participants toss a range of waste and droppings into their correct recycling containers.

Music will be provided by DJs from the local D-station.
