Bird Collisions in the Anthropocene - Crafting Project

  • Brewerton Library Branch 5440 Bennett Street Brewerton, NY, 13029 United States (map)

Make a bird

Make a migratory bird for an art project!

Bird-making workshops are where it all comes to life! By taking sewn plush birds and scrap fabric, you'll create a replica for a travelling art exhibit about bird building collisions. Every year, nearly 2 billion birds die in the United States after colliding with windows.

Bird-making workshops are great for organizing conversations and learning about bird safety, ecological issues, and sustainability. Not to mention that they are suitable to groups of all ages! It is a wonderful way to engage as a group around a central cause.
