Create Your Own Starling Bird Box

Ageing Well Festival Workshop

Workshops (7 October to 9 October 2024, 2.00pm - 12.30pm)
Join Fabrica's Men in Sheds for a welcoming workshop where you can create a cozy birdbox for starlings. This inclusive session provides all the tools you need and teaches you basic woodworking skills to build a birdbox, specially designed to support the declining starling population. No prior experience is required.

Learn simple skills by assembling your item and take home your creations to decorate and enjoy. Using basic tools like a hammer and nails, you can choose to create a bird box. The workshop will be held in Fabrica’s fully accessible gallery space, providing a beautiful setting for the event.
