This free activity is part of Fed Square’s RESET program, offering us all an opportunity to start afresh.

RESET is a full program of events and activations, including markets, festivals, immersive activities and practical and creative workshops, to inspire us all to make some little – or big – changes to our daily life, to help minimise our negative impact on the environment, and increase our positive impact.

This spring, why not join us at Fed Square to reaffirm our commitment – big or small – to make a positive change?
