This Pēkapeka (native long-tailed bat) Upcycling Sewing workshop uses reclaimed fabrics to create your very own Pēkapeka soft toy.

This hands-on activity not only builds sewing skills but also inspires a love for conservation and sustainability in a fun and meaningful way. An eco-friendly way to learn and spread awareness about one of Aotearoa’s only native land mammals.

Material provided. Children under 14 must be supervised by an adult.

Event hosted by Waitākere Central Library, run by The Re-Creators.
