Sustainable Jewelry-Making: From Trash to Treasure ♻️💎
Join us on Saturday, November 16th, for a one-of-a-kind jewelry-making experience where sustainability meets creativity. Creative wellness for all of us, and the Earth.
This workshop is guided by Rina Shin, a professional Color and Material Designer with over 15 years of experience in design and manufacturing, and in collaboration with Precious Plastic NYC, a New York-based initiative dedicated to transforming plastic waste into sustainable materials through community-focused, creative workshops.
You will design and create your own custom earrings using colorful shapes made with recycled plastic from New York City waste. Remix colors and shapes to express your imagination while learning about material circularity ♻️
Ticket includes all the materials needed to create a pair of earrings (including hardware for clip-ons). Feel free to BYO additional hardware to turn your creations into necklaces, charms, or anything else you dream up.
