About this Event
Join us for The Living Earth Festival at 72-13, Home of T:>Works, for a weekend celebrating soil, land, home and food, in community!
Presented by Living Soil Asia as part of Per°Form CoThink Lab, the Living Earth Festival will round off the year-long Living Soil Series, where we return to the grounding world of soil and everything in between, guiding us into the roots of what matters most: our connection to land, home, food, and one another.
There will be hands-on explorations, curious dialogues, a festival market, a living map, soil art appreciation, and much more!
Save the date and stay tuned via our Instagram and website for more updates!
The Living Earth Festival is the culminating point of the Living Soil Series, organised by Living Soil Asia as part of the T:>Works’ Per°Form CoThink Lab Fellowship. Through a film screening, interactive workshops, community-led conversations, and an immersive walk, the series has brought together artistic and eco-communities and sparked inquiry into how urban development shapes our lives and environment, against the backdrop of Singapore’s fast-paced development and changing landscapes.
