To celebrate the Autumn Equinox, Brink! in Belfast recently hosted the Climate Craic weekend festival to bring the best of climate and environmental workshops, panels and events to the heart of Belfast. Topics centred around food, waste, fashion, climate justice, and the importance of culture in inspiring change. As part of the weekend’s celebrations, members of the public were able to take part in natural dyeing workshops, helping to create colourful flags to be displayed in Brink’s sustainable city garden. These workshops formed part of the wider project, ‘Colour Stories: Joint Journeys of a Colour Garden’, a project presented by Brink! in partnership with Germany’s artpark Hoher Berg, and supported with funding from the Cultural Bridge programme.
