Virtual workshop: ReMaking with a Plastic Expert

Join Ocean School and GreenLearning for a highly-interactive plastic upcycling workshop!

Ocean School and GreenLearning are hosting a highly-interactive plastic upcycling workshop. Participants will explore how they interact with plastics and take part in a collaborative upcycling workshop using plastics and recyclables from their school/home to find creative design-based solutions for keeping plastic out of the environment.
