Play/Create/Build: Kit

Our kits are filled with materials that would otherwise have been added to the trash or recycling stream. Instead, they were very carefully chosen, washed, and sorted to be inspiration for your upcoming participation in our online class. Please notice the different materials these objects are made from and how it feels to see many of each type of object together, rather than a collection of individual, different objects. Notice how new and clean these objects look. Take it all in. Can you feel your mind and hands wanting to play, create and build? We can’t wait to go on this journey with you…

Most of the items in each kit can be found in any home; some have been reclaimed from a workplace (like an architectural firm, for example. Or maybe a laundromat, restaurant, or factory). As we collect items together this fall, we will be looking both near (in homes) and further (in the community -- parents’ and relatives’ workplaces, or even a favorite neighborhood business). Maybe you can already start to imagine what you might be able to find!
