SUMMARY:Young Ethical Explorers - Green Halloween: Sustainable Costume Making
DESCRIPTION:FREE – Art\, snacks\, and Earth-friendly fun — Newcomers are ALWAYS welcome! \nIt’s an unfortunate fact that Halloween is terrible for the environment: most decorations and costumes are used only once before being thrown away\, and they’re often made of plastics and harmful chemicals that can persist in the environment for centuries. \nSo\, let’s do our part to green Halloween! Join us for our annual Young Ethical Explorers DIY sustainable costume workshop\, where kids of all ages are invited to turn recycled materials of all kinds–cardboard\, fabric\, plastic\, old clothes\, and more–into their own unique costume creations. The Society will provide a trove of donated materials and attendees are also invited to bring your own! \nRSVP\nSpace is limited! Click here to RSVP on Eventbrite \nAbout Young Ethical Explorers\nYoung Ethical Explorers is the New York Society for Ethical Culture’s Humanist Sunday school for ages 3-11. The Society’s Youth and Family programs empower young people and their parents in their ethical development\, friendships\, community service\, and social activism. We welcome all families who want their children of all ages to develop caring relationships\, gain an appreciation for diversity\, and explore their personal beliefs in a progressive\, non-sectarian\, Humanist setting. \nSessions raise issues of personal identity and integrity\, appreciation and respect for others\, and knowledge of religions\, philosophies\, and social concerns. Topics are explored in an age-appropriate way through discussion\, storytelling\, dramatization\, music\, art\, games\, volunteer projects\, and field trips. \nFor more information about our youth and family programming\, please contact Youth and Family Programs Coordinator Audrey Kindred at ethicalfamilies@nysec.org or visit ethical.nyc/families.
