Episode 221: DIY Maker Spaces

The benefit of getting away from our devices is becoming more apparent and some say that DIY is on the rise.  On this episode of Breezy Breakfast we talk with Jessica Simmons of Lucent Glass, Becky Swainson of Gather + Make and Patrick Lameront of Diyode about the politics behind sewing and art, the need for third spaces and why making together is always better.  We'll also hear about the the DIY spaces they provide for us to increase our skillsets, while engaging with our community.  

Plus, surprise appearance from Anna Baggio of Wetlands League and Evan Ferrari of eMERGE to get us up to speed on what Bill 5 is all about and how it affects us here in Guelph.
