TLC (transformational loving care!) for your good intentions and well-loved things!

Have you tried to repair something precious and failed?

Perhaps mending a lovely lamp left it wobbly, fixing a favoured toy and your skills weren’t up to the job or putting the handle back on a much-loved mug and the glue wouldn’t set.

In defiance of ceaseless shopping, the pursuit of perfection and regular replacement, WRAP invites you to keep hold of your well-loved things, honour that instinct to avoid waste and discover joy in unexpected makeovers.

Bring your broken objects, stories of gorgeous failure and great hopes to The Boulevard of Broken Dreams. Skilled, hands-on assistance, fine equipment and magicians of re-invention will help you celebrate and transform what’s precious, price-less and worth holding on to.

Some objects will be embellished, pimped and dolled up, others will be immortalised as poetry, sculpture, post cards etc. And there will be other activities offered, so come along and let us learn together how to mess about with what’s broken in our worlds.

We invite you to bring your own 'broken' item with you. If that's not possible, then come with stories from your life where things have become broken. Either way we will help you turn broken dreams into unexpected joys.

Delivered by WRAP as part of Fun Palaces weekend, sharing skills, connecting communities, creating tiny revolutions.
