POPUPS

Rebuild offers a unique and sustainable approach to interactive learning through its pop-up table options.

Clients can choose from various upcycled materials, including cardboard, electronics, wood, fabric, and other creatively repurposed items. Based on the themes and focus of the client, Rebuild will design a pop-in or timed workshop option to engage participants in hands-on experiences. From crafting cardboard costumes to sewing fabric patches and constructing wooden mini-cities, Rebuild fosters creativity and environmental consciousness, turning discarded materials into opportunities for education, artistic expression, and community engagement.

MEET
JULIA(N)

Rebuild is the passion project of Mx. Julia(n) Rich (they/he), a full time 6-12 grade S.T.E.A.M. educator and makerspace manager focusing on creative reuse in maker education.

When Mx. Rich saw the need for teaching adults the same maker skills they were teaching their students, Julia(n) started teaching handy and mending classes for all ages during their school breaks and on weekends as Rebuild. Classes have been held at libraries, community spaces, creative reuse stores, and more. Rebuild focuses on inspiring developing makers of all ages to dive into sustainable woodworking, electronics, crafting, and textile work.
