Don’t miss out on the business opportunity of the year!
Time is running out to register as an exhibitor for the Sustainable Living Festival, so you’ll need to act fast if you want to get your business in front of thousands of like-minded Tasmanians. Many of our past exhibitors tell us that the bulk of their work comes through the festival each year. So take action now and see what a difference participation in Tasmania’s premier sustainability event can make for your business.
Toys R... what we want!
The wonderfully creative folk at Ashton & Peek and Cooper Screen Academy are making a high quality television ad with us pro bono. The ad will communicate how awesome the future could be if we solve climate change together! What's this got to do with us wanting toys?
Calling all creatives and future dreamers
Do you have an awesome story to tell? Perhaps you are a closet poet or hip-hop artist just waiting to break out? Maybe you prefer to work behind the scenes and would be happy to display your creative genius through our onsite art exhibition? We’re hosting a wide range of creative events at the festival this year; all focussed on our theme The Future Could Be Awesome. Punters can sit in a Metro bus on the forecourt of PW1 and hear local raconteurs in the storySLAM and PoetrySLAM, whilst the truly hip ones amongst us will have their turn with the Rap battle for the future. A number of performer spots are still available for the Hobart City Council’s Festival Stage and of course no festival would be complete without the beautiful and innovative Design Showcase. Join us as we inspire Tasmanians to create an AWESOME future together.

Sustainable House Day 2016 will be held on 11 September 2016.

How food choices effect the environment
Our food choices effect the world in many ways. Unlike previous generations we insists on specific foods, many of which can be cheap in dollars but are very expensive environmentally. We now have around 7.4 billion people in the world and growing, so what's the best food for our ever increasing population? Eumarrah have provided some information to give you some 'food for thought'.*
