YDA & Project Excel DIY Jewelry Group for Youth

This group aims to teach local youth the skills necessary to create their own jewelry.

Come create a look that is uniquely your own in this DIY jewelry group! We will transform everyday objects like bobby pins and safety pins into beautiful pieces of art you can wear, along with other projects! This group will be lead by Project Excel's Advancement Counselor Cait Hackett and YDA's Youth Worker Abbie Maher. This group will teach you the skills necessary to create your own jewelry. These unique creations are then yours to sell, keep for yourself, or give as gifts! This group is available for middle school students. This will be held at YDA's Northport location (324 Main Street, Northport). This group will run on Tuesdays in March (3/7, 3/14, 3/21, 3/28) from 4:00pm-5:00pm. This group costs $10 and includes the supplies and the lessons. For more information and to register, call Abbie Maher at 631-261-7901.
