What is Thrift Flip Fashion Experience you ask?
It is Creative Art Events proposal for a program for youth this summer.
Got style? Got ideas? Ready to find community and make something totally your own?
This FREE summer program invites youth 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 for hands-on workshops and an interactive hang out space where fashion and sustainability come together. 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. 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!

Together for the Planet
What does your park feel like?
What does it sound like? And breathe like?
Spend the day exploring local parks with neighbors while learning about air quality, noise, and temperature. Using easy-to-use technology, participants will help document environmental conditions and learn how everyday movement through the city shapes our environment.
The event centers on multi-modal transportation, including walking, biking, rolling, and bus transit as a joyful and practical way to care for our communities and reduce environmental impact. All ages welcome—no experience required.
Happening again Fall 2026 - Date TBD
