CHAIRity – a new lease on life

We have developed an innovative campaign inviting the citizens of Ljubljana to give away an old worn-out chair they no longer need. By doing so they give it a new lease on life.

The central theme of the year in Ljubljana and at the same time of the Eurocities conference, which Ljubljana is hosting this year, is circular economy.  For this reason we have developed an innovative campaign inviting the citizens of Ljubljana to give away an old worn-out chair they no longer need. By doing so they give it a new lease on life.

Old or worn-out chairs are going to be renovated with the help of four primary schools in October workshops organised by the cultural ecological society Smetumet.

In November the fresh and refurbished chairs are going to be used as part of the scenery in the CIRCULAR café as an example circular economy.

But their story doesn’t end there! A very special event is planned for December when these chairs are going to be sold and the proceeds will go to charity.

More information to come shortly.
