Agenda · 45m total

  1. Introduction + welcome
    5 minutes
    Greeting your guests upon arrival, our friendly host will explain the event's structure and set the tone for an engaging and memorable experience.
  2. Sustainability Trivia + Donations
    10 minutes
    The group will play rounds of rapidfire of environmentally-inspired trivia. Folks do not have to have much prior knowledge or be sustainability whizzes to enjoy the game. Each question has two possible answers, and players rely on their instincts to guess correctly and earn points. This quiz is designed to impart fun facts and spark conversation. Also, correct answers help players contribute to real-world causes like planting trees or reducing CO2 emissions.
  3. T-shirt Tote Time!
    15 minutes
    The host will lead through the creation of a craft where we upcycle a T-shirt into a reusable shopping bag. We give a handout at the end of the event that walks through the steps so guests can take what they learned and make more reusable shopping bags.
  4. Sustainability Game
    10 minutes
    The group will play fun and informative sustainability focused trivia and answer polls pertaining to critically thinking about humanity's relationship with the world we all share. This is also an opportunity to test how well you know your team, by asking participants to predict each other's poll responses.
  5. Wrap up + share your bag!
    5 minutes
    Because part of the fun of crafting is showing off the results, guests will get the chance to share their finished bags with their fellow eco-crafters, and the host will snap a picture. Guests will then receive a T-shirt Tote Handout and encouragement to take what they have learned and apply it to their everyday lives.
