Cut It Up and Remake It

A hands-on upcycling costume workshop with Zachary Hutchinson

Interested in costume, fashion, or making things out of unconventional materials? Then this workshop is for you. Join artist Zachary Hutchinson in this hands-on workshop, where you will get to make your own unique costume out of whatever you have around: whether it be that dress you bought at a thrift store you never wear, some old sheets, a swag of plastic bags, fabric scraps, old toys – the possibilities really are limitless.

All ages welcome and free of charge!

To bring:

  • Needles/thread
  • Scissors and pins
  • Sewing machine (optional)
  • Safety pins
  • Two (or more) items of clothing you no longer wear but still see potential in
  • Anything else you have lying around that you think might be good to use (see above)
