Craft Night with Cool Trash
Join Emma Crutcher-McGowan, founder of Cool Trash, for a special Craft Night! Learn how to transform waste plastic into a beautiful, useful, and inspirational material! Emma will share the technique of fusing together layers of soft plastics like grocery bags to create a fabric-like substance that can be stitched into any number of objects. Bring your plastic waste such as any single-use plastic bag and produce nets. Please clean all plastic waste so that it is free from liquids, food, residue, etc. Remove sticky labels where applicable. Textile Center will have a couple of sewing machines available for anyone who would like to sew with their fused plastic fabric; participants are welcome to bring their own sewing machines to use as well as any relevant notions. This is an intergenerational class open to crafters ages 9 years old and up; participants under the age of 16 years must be accompanied by an adult caregiver.
