Upcycle Parts Shop

Calling all crafty kids! Join us for our first ever Upcycle Mini Makers workshop where we’ll explore the art of upcycling in a fun and relaxing environment where you can let your creativity run wild. In our inaugural event, kids and their grownups will transform trophies into customized awards using our huge buffet of zany upcycle parts!
In our upstairs community crafting room* we will share about our favorite materials and trophy transformation techniques before unleashing our mini makers to design and upcycle a personalized trophy with the help of their grown up.
Included with your ticket are all materials needed to make and take one upcycled trophy, a kid-friendly snack, and a 10% off coupon to use on any purchases made in the shop.
 
Each adult may bring up to three children and should purchase the corresponding ticket type. Children must be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the workshop. Recommended for ages 3 and up. 
 
*Please note that our upstairs workshop space is accessible via stairs only.
