DIY Days Toronto

DIY Days are events that happen around the world that look pretty neat. I just registered for the one happening next month in Toronto.

A roving gathering focused on purposeful storytelling, play, collaborative design and social good. A learn, do & share event.

FREE to participants and organized by volunteers – diy days is about the accessibility of ideas, resources and networking that can help to improve the planet.

diy days events are split into a three act structure consisting of a framework that focuses on a LEARN, DO & SHARE ethos.

You can register and find out more about the Toronto DIY Days here.
