Following the success of the Trashcatchers’ Carnival in 2010, and a strong arts and making presence at the yearly Foodival and in this year’s Treasuring Tooting wellbeing walk, Tooting is gearing up to discover and acknowledge just how important arts and making is to Tooting’s transition steps.

Smart stands for Sustainable Making and Arts Tooting.
We’re a branch group of Transition Town Tooting, and had our first meeting last week.
Mapping making and the arts in Tooting
We shared some of our work, and then mapped out what we have happening in the arts in Tooting (which as you can see in the picture is rather a lot), and finished by imagining what we could do in the future and how we might achieve it.
We will need to get making for this year’s Foodival which is on the 22nd & 23rd September.
Smart are meeting again on the 16th August (venue to be announced), and if you think you would be interested to join us for the Foodival or beyond please drop an email to me: jeniannewalker@yahoo.co.uk
