Book Planter Workshop

This event is part of Earth Week at the University of Miami Libraries.

Join Nyabi Benjamin and Elida Velado Salazar for an engaging, hands-on workshop that blends creativity, sustainability, and a touch of green inspiration. Open to University students, faculty, and staff, this session invites you to give an old book new life by transforming it into a sustainable planter.

Learn the basics of crafting your planter, explore simple design techniques, and discover how to choose and care for the plant you’ll take home. All supplies are provided, and no crafting experience is required.
