The Amaluma Workshops at PLATTE celebrated creativity, self-expression, and sustainability by offering participants hands-on experiences in upcycling. Attendees had the opportunity to repair old dishes, design unique bag accessories, and transform forks and knives into stunning rings. With expert guidance, they learned techniques to mend cracks in ceramics, craft personalized handles, and reshape cutlery into stylish jewelry. These workshops emphasized a mindful approach to upcycling, demonstrating that broken or forgotten items can be reimagined into something beautiful and functional rather than discarded.
