Thursday: Wool Day!

17 October 2023

Every first Thursday of the month, the Cuypershuis organizes Wool Day at the museum. This is a participatory project where you’ll work with wool and discuss steps toward a more sustainable lifestyle. No prior knowledge or experience is required, and everyone is welcome! We’d love to hear about your experience and ideas, and we’ll also share what we’ve learned with staff from the City of Roermond’s sustainability department.

Together with the other participants, we’ll determine the best ways to inspire each other to make sustainable choices. We’ll work together as a creative think tank. Drawing inspiration from the “Onder de Wol” exhibition, we’ll brainstorm as many new ideas as possible during a fun, creative session. We’ll then develop the best ideas into concrete plans.

This is the final Thursday Wool Day as part of the “Onder de Wol” exhibition . Over the past few months, many ideas, tips, and opinions have been shared during the Wool Days. During this final Thursday Wool Day activity, we’ll work together to select the best ideas that inspire a more sustainable lifestyle! All the ideas will come together in a felt artwork to commemorate Thursday Wool Day.

Woldag! on tour—join in and share your thoughts!
Woldag! is coming to you. Woldag! is heading out beyond the museum’s walls because your experience and ideas are very important to us. During a session, you’ll get hands-on with wool and discuss a healthy planet—both now and in the future. You don’t need to know anything about wool, climate, the environment, nature, energy, etc., but you do need to be willing to share your perspective on the world and your thoughts on certain topics with the other participants and us. The ideas, solutions, questions, and wishes will be compiled and documented to help the City of Roermond develop new policies.

The topic for Woldag! is:
How can green innovations create a healthier world, what does that mean for us, and how can we, as global citizens, start thinking differently (“rethink”) and make a contribution?

Discover the world of green energy innovation and its impact on our daily lives. The demand for green energy continues to grow, and there are numerous new developments. But introducing and using “something new” isn’t always easy or straightforward. After all, what does that mean for our daily lives, and what does it cost? Turning a problem into an opportunity—that’s rethinking! “www.omdenken.nl”

How can you make sustainable choices in your daily life? Join the other participants to discover how you can make sustainable choices in your daily life, and work together to create a handout full of tips and insights to help and inspire others.
