DIY Series
Save the Dates to “Do It Yourself”
A CONNECTING COMMUNITIES COLLABORATION
This summer and autumn, eight artists will lead a series of weeklong workshops devoted to do-it-yourself (DIY) crafts. The DIY craft movement emphasizes sustainability, individuality, and living simply. DIY craftspeople strive to stop the homogenization of American culture and to create work driven not by capitalism but rather by a sharing community.
This project promotes DIY ethics to make craft technologies and skills accessible to all and to encourage individuals to create their own material goods. Join the community of DIYers to learn new skills, to create fabulous objects for your personal use, or even to create a means of additional income.
