Camp Scrap Earth Day Party — Niles

A sustainability-themed craft camp is running Sunday, April 19, in Fremont’s Niles District, with drop-in activities scheduled from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. (eventsincalifornia.com) The event is listed at Cassa Jam, 37729 Niles Boulevard in Fremont, and the organizer says attendees can arrive at any point during the six-hour window. (eventsincalifornia.com) An Eventbrite listing says Art of the Bay Collective is presenting the program and describes it as a free, all-ages event with a sliding-scale donation option of $5 to $10. The same listing says supplies are first come, first served. (eventbrite.com) The focus is upcycling: turning leftover or discarded materials into art instead of throwing them away. The organizer’s description invites “curious” and “experimental” campers to make projects from reused supplies. (eventbrite.com) The timing places the gathering inside a broader Earth Day weekend in Fremont. The City of Fremont held its annual Earth Day Fair on Saturday, April 18, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Downtown Event Center & Plaza. (fremont.gov) Niles is one of the historic districts that make up Fremont, a city formed in 1956 from five former townships. City materials describe those districts as distinct neighborhoods that still retain their own identities. (fremont.gov) That local setting gives the event a neighborhood scale: a small creative program tied to a citywide sustainability push, but hosted on Niles Boulevard rather than at Fremont’s main civic event site. (fremont.gov; eventsincalifornia.com) For families and drop-in visitors, the practical details are simple: Sunday, April 19, outside Cassa Jam in Niles, with crafting from reused materials running until 5 p.m. and entry available at no fixed start time.
