Camp Scrap Earth Day Party in Niles

A drop-in Earth Day craft camp is running in Fremont’s Niles District on Sunday, April 19, with organizers inviting all ages to make art from reused materials. (eventsincalifornia.com) The event is called “camp scrap - earth day party” and is scheduled from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Cassa Jam, 37729 Niles Boulevard in Fremont. (eventbrite.com) The listing says attendance is drop-in, with people welcome to arrive anytime during the six-hour window, and describes the program as a sustainability-focused day camp built around experimental crafting. (eventsincalifornia.com) Organizers say the price is sliding scale, with free entry available and a recommended donation of $5 to $10. Supplies are listed as first come, first served, and attendees are also encouraged to bring their own art materials. (eventbrite.com) The format fits a broader Earth Day pattern in Fremont this weekend, where city-backed events have centered on hands-on sustainability activities rather than formal ceremonies. Fremont’s annual Earth Day Fair was held Saturday, April 18, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in partnership with Washington Health and Local Ecology and Agriculture Fremont. (fremont.gov) Earth Day itself is observed each year on April 22, and Bay Area communities often spread related events across several days in late April. The Mercury News described 2026 as the holiday’s 56th anniversary and listed multiple local celebrations this week. (mercurynews.com) Cassa Jam, the host site in Niles, describes itself on its public events calendar as an art-and-tech studio space and gift shop in the East Bay. Its calendar also shows other “Camp Scrap” programming this month, including “junk journal nights,” suggesting the Earth Day event is part of an ongoing series rather than a one-off workshop. (luma.com, happeningnext.com) For Sunday visitors, the pitch is straightforward: show up in Niles between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m., bring extra supplies if you have them, and turn scrap into something usable or decorative before Earth Day arrives on Wednesday, April 22.
