Within the Regional Arts & Culture Council is The Right Brain Initiative, which transforms learning for all kids through creative thinking, innovation, and whole-brain thinking.

Every year they put on a fundraiser called SHIFT. It showcases experiments in fashion design, in which participants transform discarded materials and found objects into wearable couture. 

I created letters made of materials typically discarded – ones that could double as innovative fashion, like rope, rubber gloves, turf, loofah, beach balls, steel wool, candy wrappers, etc. – then built these letters into verbs that highlight the magical process of creating.
