Make something

Have a go at a making project and start commoning in your own life. Created by We are Commoners artists, these four activities encourage us to develop their ideas for ourselves using objects, information and stories that we have already within our own homes, localities and communities.

Share your act of commoning by posting a picture of your project using #WeAreCommoners and tag us on instagram, twitter or facebook. If you prefer, you can email a picture to us at [email protected] and we can share it for you.
