Events Description

 
Connecting community through plastic-free living – from a safe distance!

The Zero Waste Market is an all-day market and showcase produced by Plastic-Free YYC and Springboard Performance that aims to raise awareness of our growing plastic problem and promote a zero-waste lifestyle. Attendees will have the opportunity to interact with organizations and businesses across Calgary who promote zero-waste living and sustainability. Local zero-waste businesses will sell various sustainable products at the market, and non-profit organisations will share interactive exhibits focused on raising awareness and enacting sustainable social change.

Two performances will also be held throughout the day. Wastelands by Savannah Harvey is an interactive theatre performance that focuses on the impacts of waste. And Eily Aurora will play along to the frequencies produced by plants with her harp. The showtimes are 20 minutes each and are as follows:
