Soak up all the ☀️RE’s at the ultimate SUMMER event☀️. REuse, REpair, and REpurposing are in high style for the season of sun.
Our junky jamboree features artisans who transform reclaimed materials into one-of-a-kind goods. Shop for home goods, art, garden accessories, fashion, body care, stuff you've never seen before… and more.
For this special edition, we are stuffing as many RE's into your experience as possible.
⚙️ Repair:
Working Bikes' mechanics will spruce up your wheels for summer joy-riding.
Create unique patches with Mi Rayo de Sol to bring your fave garments back to a loved state.
👛 Repurpose:
Bring your plastic bags to Anna's "plarn" crochet station and learn how to turn it into a functional pouch.
Chicago Creative Reuse Exchange is guiding a make-n-take with reclaimed supplies from their warehouse.
💡 Reimagine:
As always, you can shop transformational goods handcrafted by 30 of our local REmakers. Bring your not-yet-trash materials from home to our Trash Smashing Artisans for their next line of upcycled wares. Stay tuned for their wishlist!
🧵 Reuse:
Hand sew scrap fabric onto a community-created quilt by Chicago Textile Center.
Co-create trashy tapestries on our LOOM360 and learn to weave with Considered Cloth.
🎤 Reculture:
Enjoy an upcycled art gallery featuring Studio Kloak, fashion show by REDEAUX, poetry by Kroetry, trashy puppetry by Always Sometimes Maybe, live music by Loony Is Normal.
If you need one more reason to head over to Logan Square that day, hit up the Farmer's Market to stock your fridge with local produce.
🌐 Check back soon to meet our Trash Smashers! We’re cooking up the final list of merchants and activities.
There is no better way to show love for our one-and-only planet than to gather together as a community! We have nowhere else to go, so let’s go nowhere together.
