19th Annual Spontaneous Construction at Home ReSource

Spontaneous Construction (SponCon) is an annual building competition and festival of reuse that happens at Home ReSource, Missoula’s only Community Sustainability Center! 

Everyone is invited to join us during the seven-hour building competition in supporting our amazing teams while also getting your own hands dirty with plenty of reuse projects hosted by many other community and sustainability-minded organizations like YWCA GUTS!, Animal Wonders, National Wildlife Federation, Families First Learning Lab, and Girls Scouts of Montana and Wyoming. From DIY reuse and repurposed solar oven to garden barrels to pet toys – these projects are all free and family-friendly. 

The Home ReSource ReUse Store will be open for all your building materials needs and donations during the event. In the parking lot you will find activities, food and beverages will be available for purchase, and live music throughout the day! Are you ready for the nittiest, grittiest, barb-a-looten-est party in town?

Let’s get ready to SponCon!
