Going “Bag to the Future” with the Cooper Hewitt Museum!

To get ready for New York’s plastic bag ban, effective March 1, Tick Studio lead museum-goers at the Cooper Hewitt Museum in making lap loom weavings using recycled materials including plastic bags, mylar balloons, and other single use plastics. Raising awareness on the larger topic of climate change, participants also learned how to calculate their own carbon footprint. There were three workshops at 9am, 11am and 1pm.

Participants brought their own plastic bags to weave into their design. Thank you to everyone who contributed to a fantastic event!
