Kicking off the programme with dialogues about The Local Tree Project, we illuminate the landscape of our woodworking industry. Engage in conversations with us as we share on the stories of our local trees and our efforts in utilising local resources and reducing wastage.

You will also be able to partake in creating your very own pair of wooden chopsticks and pencils through our workshop experience! Utilising offcuts—materials that are leftover—we wish to share how they could be turned into usable products, rather than discarding them.

This programme is open to everyone, no experience is required for participants to take part in our workshops. The duration of this programme is 1.5 hours.
