Join us for a hands-on workshop where you'll transform discarded plastic waste, leather scraps and laser-cut acrylic offcuts into stunning wearable art pieces.

Using our laser cutter and simple hand tools, you will learn innovative techniques to upcycle discarded materials from the makerspace that would otherwise end up in landfill.

No prior experience is needed - just bring your creativity and a desire to make a positive impact on our planet.
