The amazing folks at http://www.neighborhoodbikeworks.org/ are putting on a art, craft, music, beer, snacks, raffle, silent auction benefit for a suggested donation of $5 Friday September 17th at the same http://www.studio34yoga.com/, where the Hacktory sponsored http://8static.com/ takes place every month.

I am daydreaming of the fantastic kinetic sculpture class that Brad Litwin, (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKrNJdJj7uE&feature=channel_page) taught at the Hacktory last summer.

This Saturday Aug 22 The Hacktory is offering a fun and unique Recycled Electronics Jewelry workshop from 1:00-5:00pm.

Artist and instructor Ann Warner of Lancaster says:

"In an ongoing effort by The Hacktory to find new ways to combine art with technology, we created the Recycled Electronic Jewelry Workshop. We'll teach basic jewelry-making skills to people of all age levels (10 yrs and up), including design ideas, basic soldering and assembly techniques, and a rich variety materials to create your own jewelry and small sculpture.

"We'll recycle old electronic parts carefully harvested by members of The Hacktory and provided by a generous Lancaster donor.

"This workshop will add beauty and interest to the world by reclaiming and recycling things that would normally end up in our overflowing landfills. It will also be tons of fun and spark creativity for all attendees."

The cost to participate in this workshop is only $20, which includes all materials including a large selection of awesome-looking retro electronic components for building your own jewelry.

Pictured above are examples of recycled electronic jewelry created by instructor Ann Warner.
