SUMMARY:Natural Cosmetics Beauty Workshop (Surrey\, BC)
DESCRIPTION:Learn the basic of making your own all-natural cosmetics in this DIY workshop. Ever wonder if the bath and beauty products you daily use on your body are good for you and the environment. Unfortunately many of the off-the-shelf cosmetic products we use do contain toxins that are absorbed by our skin and also get washed away into the environment. Take charge of your health by taking charge of your beauty. \nThrough easy to follow\, step-by-step\, hands-on instruction\, you will learn: \n\nAbout the basic ingredients needed to to make your all-natural cosmetics\,\nHow to make hand soap\,\nHow to make face wash\,\nAnd how to make bath salts.\n\nYou’ll take home each of the things you make (a $25 retail value) as well as the recipes\, so you can make more whenever you run out. \nAll products can be made scent neutral for those with sensitivities or allergies. Your home made cosmetics will be made from all natural ingredients\, free of additives\, preservatives or other chemicals that can be harmful for health and the environment. \nAbout the Instructor\nNorma Hogan first learned about the basic principles of natural cosmetics at a David Suzuki Foundation Queen of Green workshop over ten years ago. Since then she has been making her own cleaning and cosmetic products\, selling them and other green products under her brands Ahimsa Green Products\, as well as leading workshops. She is passionate about sharing her knowledge in this fun and simple workshop! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nPowered by Eventbrite

SUMMARY:Cafe A Rocha (Winnipeg\, MB)
DESCRIPTION:You are invited for a fall supper – good food and good conversation!\nThis year for Cafe A Rocha we will be focusing our conversations around climate change. Now\, more than ever\, we need avenues for conversation and support as we do the work of caring for creation. Whether you are new to the environmental conversation or a seasoned expert there is a place for you around the table.  \nOver the year we will be seeking to discuss questions such as: \n\nWhat is our role as Christians in addressing complex problems such as climate change?\nWhat does the science actually say about climate change?\nWhat role does grief and lament play in caring for creation?\nWhere can we find hope in a world in crisis?\n\nWhat are your questions? Come to the table with YOUR big questions around climate change and creation care. \nRSVP by [modal_text_link name=”contact” class=”” id=””]Clicking Here[/modal_text_link] by Oct 2nd \n[modal name=”contact” title=”RSVP Here” size=”large” background=”” border_color=”” show_footer=”yes” class=”” id=””]\n    \n    \n    \n    \n                    \n                \n                                    \n                \n                \n\n    \n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n\n\n\n    \n    \n\n\n\nYour Name\n\n\nYour Email\n\n\nYour Subject\n\n\nYour Message\n\nYes\, I want to sign up for ARMB's monthly newsletter!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nreCAPTCHA helps prevent automated form spam.\n\nThe submit button will be disabled until you complete the CAPTCHA.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact Information \n  \n       \n \n[/modal]\nLocation: 199 Ethelbert St  \nPlease bring a $3-$5 donation to cover the cost of the meal.
