About this Event
The theme is Renewal.
Join us for a very special PopUp PlayDate where we’ll welcome in the Spring season and take what’s old and give it new life. In collaboration with visual artist Kimberly Antoinette (founder of Thread the Culture), we’re ditching the formal lesson plan for a creative textile jam session.
This is an open invitation to play with textiles, experiment with jewelry making, and craft one-of-a-kind patches. Whether you’re looking to refresh an old denim jacket or transform textile scraps into statement jewelry, we’re here to help you activate that wardrobe glow-up.
We’ll have a full spread of supplies ready for you to repurpose, refresh, and reimagine your favorite items. Attendees are welcome to use our provided items or bring your own jackets, shirts, totes – and of course your imagination!
We’ll enjoy bites and bubbles and then we’ll create. Our PlayDates are spaces of refuge that center community, culture, and connection to help you destress and infuse your life with more joy and play.
