Upcycled Pillow Making Workshop with Dana Keaton-Wilson

  • The LOVE Building 4731 Grand River Avenue Detroit, MI, 48208 United States (map)

Join us for a special Legacy Fashion Experience Workshop on Thursday, November 6, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM. The evening begins at 6:00 PM with an inspiring eco-friendly workshop where participants will learn how to transform a pre-loved garment into a one-of-a-kind decorative pillow. Guided by a focus on sustainability and creativity, this hands-on experience celebrates the art of upcycling while teaching basic hand-sewing techniques. Guests are encouraged to bring a meaningful or gently worn garment—such as a shirt, sweater, or dress—to repurpose into a beautiful and functional pillow.

The event continues through 9:00 PM, offering a unique blend of fashion, art, and meaningful craft. Guests can expect a drop-in pillow-making workshop (as supplies last), a viewing of the Legacy Fashion Experience footage, interactive art and fashion installations, and insight into the artistic practice and life of designer Dana Keaton.
