Trees That Speak: Community Bookmaking with Recycled Materials for Tree Lovers

Join JTNWI member and Imperfect Paper founder Gretchen Maguire for an inspiring notebook-making workshop where creativity meets sustainability. Gretchen has thoughtfully curated a kit for each community member, using repurposed and recycled materials to create something beautiful, useful, and uniquely yours. Our inspiration for the workshop is the trees that allow us to capture our thoughts, dreams, and stories on paper. Together, we’ll explore the connection between creativity, just transition principles, and the choices we make to honor Mother Earth. We’ll also reflect on how simple, meaningful activities like this can contribute to the regenerative future we are building together in our region. Come create, connect, and celebrate the possibilities of giving new life to materials that might otherwise be discarded. Snacks and drinks will be provided.
