Goods Made Good

In partnership with Goodwill, students in Fiber Arts classes at Kamiakin, Kennewick and Southridge High School are reusing, recycling and redesigning "old" clothing and textile goods into "new" fashions and products.

Students participated in a tour of the Pasco Goodwill store and warehouse, learning about the mission and focus of their local Goodwill stores.

The students were provided the opportunity to select merchandise that did not sell and was being sorted to be shipped out for recycling. The students developed their own designs and patterns and began to create! As projects are completed, we'll share the "before" and "after" creations!
