Creative Art Events “Thrift Flip Fashion Experience”

Long Beach City College - Trades, Technology, and Community Learning Campus 1305 E Pacific Coast Hwy, Long Beach, CA 90806 Building/Room: FF101 Tuesday, July 21, 2026, 6 – 9pm This FREE 3-week summer program for ages 14–23 invites you to explore the world of fashion design through a safe space that emphasizes creativity and upcycled materials to turn old clothes into bold new looks. We’ll meet twice weekly from 6–9 p.m. for hands-on workshops and an interactive hang out space where fashion and sustainability come together. Our hours allow you to enjoy your daytime summer activities while giving everyone a creative evening place to gather and make friends. Along the way, you’ll collaborate to learn skills like sewing, clothing repair, and fashion design. You’ll try quick design challenges and experiment with clothing, fabric, and even recycled materials. Whether you’ve never touched a sewing machine or you already love design, this program is for you! Guest designers will share their unique style, from thrift culture and upcycling to creative styling and wearable art. The best part? You’ll create unique fashion using reclaimed clothing and materials. Together, you’ll work toward showing your creation in a youth-led fashion show – choosing a theme, planning, and voting for the best look. Your design could also appear at Trashion Show Long Beach, giving you the chance to showcase your creativity on a real stage! Supplies, food, and sewing kits (that you can keep!) are provided. This isn’t just fashion: express yourself, make friends, learn skills, and help the planet. Bring your ideas and show Long Beach your style!
