Have you ever been to a birthday party or a concert and noticed how much single-use plastic you were surrounded by? From plastic drink cups to entry bracelets to party favors, these very temporary events are filling our world with pollution that far outlasts them. In this studio, we're embarking on a journey to reimagine single-use event items with biodegradable materials. 

You will select a single-use plastic item commonly found at events -- such as birthday parties, weddings, concerts, mud runs, carnivals/fairs, or even protests -- and redesign it using bioplastics such as: mycelium, potato starch, or gelatin-based bioplastic. Whether it's decorations, accessories, or utensils, let your imagination run wild! Together, we'll showcase the power of creativity and innovation in crafting biodegradable solutions for short-lived events with long-lasting effects on the planet.
