Join us in the Museum Store for a jewelry-making demonstration by our featured designer, Regenerous Designs!
Up-cycling designer Alyssa Bird of Regenerous Designs creates one-of-a-kind and versatile accessories. A graduate of the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, Alyssa noticed one concerning aspect she had not anticipated: waste. Where others saw scraps of fabric that could not be used, she saw an opportunity to make a positive, fashionable impact.
Come watch Alyssa transform fabric remnants into unique pieces of jewelry, then browse our collection of her work and other spectacular artisan-made items.
Free, no ticket required. Drop in anytime from 10 AM to 6 PM.
