Art Hat Workshop

City of Cleveland - Mayor's Office of Sustainability

Participants will virtually join local artist Ron Shelton to learn how to create an Art Hat from common plastic items in the home.

Plastic. It’s everywhere. It’s in our homes, our water ways, our schools, and even in us. While the challenges of plastic can feel overwhelming, the conversation about it doesn’t have to be. We invite you to join us and a few of our friends for a virtual workshop to learn how to make a plastic-embellished art sculpture yourself and/or with your family. <a href="https://www.sustainablecleveland.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Sustainable Cleveland</a> and <a href="https://www.upcyclepartsshop.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Upcycle Parts Shop</a>, join <a href="https://www.highartfridays.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Cleveland multi-media artist Ron Shelton</a>, in hosting this workshop to learn about the issue of plastic pollution , discuss how reduction and reuse are important, and showcase a plastic upcycling project.
