Community Upcycling – Giving Scrap a Second Life
Give materials that would otherwise be thrown away a new lease of life.
Saturday, 14 November 2026
11:00–15:00
Asgradstraße 7, 13089 Berlin
About the event
Do you have anything lying around at home that you were actually planning to throw away? Bring it along!
Whether it’s an old plank, a rusty piece of metal, something you’ve found in the bulky waste or anything you’ve picked up off the street – anything that others have long since given up on is welcome here.
In the workshop, you’ll get creative together with WIUW: take a look at what’s inside the object and come up with a new use or repurpose it. Whether the object ends up going home as an everyday item, a work of art or something completely unexpected – that’s something that will be decided during the process.
You’ve got nothing? No problem – just pick something from the pool of materials on site.
Please bring the following:
Anything else you’d normally throw away (no electrical appliances, no large items/furniture)
