As an environmentally conscious artist, I pledge to source seasonal produce grown as locally as possible for the picnic element of ‘Tummy Rumble; A Play Parachute Event’.

As an environmentally conscious artist, I pledge to minimize food waste as much as possible.

The picnic is an additional element to the children’s play event, however we expect some food waste. We plan to minimize this as much as possible by serving small tasters of foods children have perhaps not tried before/eaten regularly. Any leftover foods will be gifted to festival-goers or donated to local community fridges. If there is any food waste left after this, we will compost it.

As an environmentally conscious artist, I pledge to use as little single-use plastic as possible.

For the picnic element of the activity, we will use compostable paper plates, napkins, and cups. Food items offered to participants will be seasonal and locally produced.

For the parachute itself I’ll be using waterproof plastic material, this is to ensure the functionality and longevity of the piece so that it can be used for multiple events for years to come.

Throughout my making process, I am always actively assessing the environmental impact of my work. This will inform my creative decisions i.e. where I source materials, what materials I choose to work with, what is the life span of the work, and how will the piece be used after the event.

Materials: I will source materials from second-hand centres such as Circular Arts Net, ScrapAntics, and Facebook Marketplace and swap shops. For materials I cannot source from these services I will try to source the most environmentally conscious suppliers I can. Materials will be purchased in person as much as possible, to minimise fuel consumption through delivery services.

Transport: Public transport will be used traveling to and from Dundee (except when access needs require alternative methods).
