Seed to Soul is Crane’s monthly celebration of sustainability and holistic wellness, in support of local businesses and causes. Every month Seed to Soul will celebrate a different theme. We’ll bring you marketplaces with local small businesses, from artisanal crafts to homemade F&B; workshops to discover a greener and better way to live; and a chance to meet and mingle with like-minded folks in a vibrant and eclectic atmosphere. Entry to the event is free. Fees apply for individual workshops and services.

OCTOBER 16th: SELF MADE

On 16 October, Crane celebrates the handmade, hand-built and hand-grown. We’ve invited carpenters, bag-makers, resin craftspersons and even tattoo artists to showcase their work here at Crane.

In conjunction with this, we’ll also be running a Farmer’s Market (you can’t get more hands-on than organic farming!), and a delicious brunch will be available from Bollywood Adventures’ Earth Shop & Cafe (pre-booking essential!)

This time round we celebrate ownership and authorship manifested in the most tangible forms. Co-curated primarily with alumni and the brainchild of the punk rooted, decade-old Distro Day Out series, we present SEED TO SOUL : SELF-MADE! Run in tandem with a buffet of vendors and workshops, SELF-MADE is a representation of sustainability stories from the DIY subculture circles!

Be treated to pop ups by

STRAITS RECORDS : amongst the longest running DIY record stores, first starting out in a few spots across Kampong Glam and Balestier and then culminating in their most recent residency in the recently-closed seminal artspace: The Substation.

EMPRINSTIC : nestled in a quiet shophouse in Geylang, meet the master of self-printed shirts, tote bags and other paraphernalia and accessories.

VIVOS APPARATUS : a one-woman show in many ways, Vivos Apparatus is behind the impressive array of backpacks, sling bags and more!

AGAINST THE GRAIN : from boxes to containers to shelves, ATG does them all! Known for coming up with wondrous wooden wonders for all uses and purposes!

VIVA LA VIDA Tattoos : with their flagship store in Madras Street then moving to different parts of Balestier, VIVA LA VIDA Tattoos is a husband-and-wife duo doing tattoos of all shapes and sizes! Get inked!

POPPYXCRAFTS : Come experience this creative pixie effort of home wares with jesmonite, resin and clay!
