FREE Upcycled Plastic Workshop @ Cubberley

Inviting Greenmeadow and Associate members to join local nonprofit Inventurous for a hands-on workshop turning discarded plastic into something useful and long-lasting. Using fused recycled film plastic, participants will make either a cardholder, pencil case, or small toiletry bag to take home.

We’ll walk through the process of transforming everyday waste into durable “pleather,” then guide you through cutting and sewing your chosen item. No prior sewing experience needed — just curiosity and a willingness to experiment.

• Bring spare zips if you have them (optional — we’ll have some on hand too).

♻️ We’ll also be collecting newspaper delivery bags as part of our ongoing local recycling effort, so feel free to bring any you’ve been saving. Also collecting green and brown plastic containers and bottle tops (look for #2 code) for a large public art sculpture.
