Reclaimed Vinyl Bag Project
The Salt Lake Chapter of the AIGA will take part in the 33rd annual Utah Arts Festival, the largest outdoor multi-disciplined event in Utah. Having garnered numerous awards internationally, nationally and locally, the event remains one of the premiere events that kicks off the summer in Utah each June. Featuring over 130 visual artists, 100 performing arts groups and over 18 culinary artists, the festival draws over 80,000 patrons each June
The AIGA will be holding daily workshops teaching how to give new life to local reclaimed billboard and vinyl material. You can craft a one-of-a-kind accessory by turning a once giant image into smaller works of art. Come produce or purchase pre-made handbags, wallets, totes and more. The process is easy and requires no previous experience. It’s a great opportunity to learn about design, layout and color to turn the fabric intro a piece of urban art
Register for workshops at the AIGA booth June 25-28
Classes begin at 1:00, 3:00, 5:00 and 7:00 PM
Workshop FREE for AIGA members.
Purchase pre-made vinyl bags throughout the festival.
To volunteer at the booth, contact Thayne at volunteer@slc.aiga.org. You will get a free ticket into the Arts Festival for the day of service.
