DIY Earth Day fiber arts teen time

Learn basic hand sewing skills and make your own plush cactus out of recycled materials with teaching artist Ellen Lumpkin Brown! 

Using felt made from recycled water bottles and DIY shredded stuffing, you'll create your plush cactus  and "plant" it in a compostable peat pot with sewn decorations. 

This program is for tweens and teens ages 10-18. 

This program is made possible by generous support from Con Edison.
