Through talks, workshops, a curated exhibition, and site-tours, we will explore material possibilities and the real-world strategies needed for retrofit and built environment transitions here in the West Midlands."Instead of doing less damage to the environment, it is necessary to learn how we can participate with the environment by using the health of ecological systems as a basis for design" — Bill ReedThe Journey So farOver the past two years, Re:Builders has taken form as an immersive learning programme in response to an initiative by Innovate UK to demonstrate how Further Education Colleges might support learning and innovation in small to medium businesses.Hosted through a collaboration between CIVIC SQUARE and Fircroft College, in partnership with Material Cultures and Dark Matter Labs (and funded by Innovate UK), we have worked with two cohorts of tradespeople and craftspersons dedicated to the vital role of retrofit and regenerative construction.This celebration seeks to ground the work and learnings of this foundational chapter as Re:Builders moves from a learning programme into an active collective of peers developing regenerative construction skills through applied learning on live sites and demonstrator projects across our region.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/8992fa90-256d-11f1-886e-e3e40c802de8-rimg-w1200-h600-dc44434e-gmir.jpg What to ExpectWhen you arrive, you can expect a warm welcome, over a hot drink at the historic grounds of Fircroft College.
