Raven’s Zero Waste team is promoting a plastic-free summer! Check out our events throughout the months of June and July:
Artist Residency:
Artists Nicole Bauberger and Cheryl McLean are exploring plastics in the Yukon River with the creation of a display in Raven ReCentre’s Depot. The public is invited to interact with the artists on the days they are setting up in the Depot. Come say hi on June 16-17, 19-20, 23-24. The display will be up on July 31st.
Plastic-Free July Pledge:
Take our Plastic-Free July pledge! Sign up and choose which level of plastic-free you’ll commit to for the month of July:
Avoid single-use plastics;
Avoid plastic packaging on food;
Avoid all plastics at your place of work;
Avoid all plastics at home; or
Go hard core and commit to avoiding plastics everywhere all the time.
We will be sending emails to you throughout the month of July to provide tips, facts and help you stay on track. Sign up for the pledge here. Participants who complete the pledge will be entered into a zero waste prize draw donated by Riverside Grocery!
