About our upcycling workshops

Transforming waste into wonder through hands-on creative reuse.

Creative reuse

At SHAX, we believe in the power of creative reuse to transform our community and environment. Our upcycling workshops, led by expert Julie Stephen, provide hands-on experiences that teach valuable skills while reducing waste.

For everyone

Each workshop is accessible to all skill levels, from complete beginners to experienced crafters. We provide all materials — most reclaimed or donated items that would otherwise end up in landfill.
