Project Description: Earth Day Sustainability Fair at Nicolet College

For the 2025 Earth Day Sustainability Fair at Nicolet College, I offered two interactive experiences designed to celebrate creativity, community, and conscious living.

🌿 Handmade Paper Station – In collaboration with the wonderful Robin Harrison, I guided participants through the process of transforming recycled junk mail into beautiful handmade paper. This hands-on activity invited all ages to explore sustainable artmaking and sparked conversations about reuse, intention, and the quiet magic of giving old materials new life.

♻️ DIY Style, Play & Pose Photo Spot – A playful, expressive corner where guests could try on my original wearable art made from upcycled and eco-dyed fashion pieces. This mini pop-up encouraged people to engage with the values of slow fashion, body positivity, and personal style while posing in their favorite look for a fun, eco-chic photo moment.

Both offerings were designed to inspire joy, reflection, and empowerment through sustainability. It was an honor to share space with the Northwoods community—reminding each other that small, creative choices can have a meaningful impact on our planet and each other.
