Every T-shirt deserves to be cool.
Grab your butt-ugly t-shirts and head to the Art Lab this weekend. The Art Lab is doing double duty this Friday and Saturday by hosting the bimonthly Toolbox Art Party, and screen printing some lovely Reshirts.
So, Toolbox Creative is throwing a two-day ReShirt printing party on August 21 and 22 to keep millions, okay maybe dozens, of ugly T-shirts on people and out of the rag pile. The green-minded graphic design and marketing firm began the Toolbox T-shirt Rescue Program after finding that its re-purpose in the world is giving new life to old tees.
Toolbox Creative is setting up a temporary screen-printing studio at Art Lab Fort Collins. The ReShirt screen-printing marathon is from 6pm – 9pm on Friday, August 21, and from noon – 6pm on Saturday, August 22. Anyone is invited to bring an old T-shirt with crummy original design to the FREE party at Art Lab, and the Toolbox crew will turn it into a bonafide piece of wearable art right on the spot. Gotta love that.
