WHO:
Anyone! But it’d be great to have some folks with experience with stencil making, prop making, etc to be on hand to help folks without experience. We’ll be making visuals that can be used in the Dec 22 actions and the ongoing vigils at the U.N.

NEEDS:
If you can get any of the following, please bring

cardboard (1, 2 and 3 ply - the bigger the better, and ideally with as few creases as possible – refridgerator boxes are the best)

tape (duct, masking, packing.. anything with durability and strength)

box cutters and scissors

markers and sharpies (the larger the better and in multiple colours)

string and rope

fabric (by the roll ideally – there are many places in the city (canal st. for example) where rolls of fabric can be purchased at a reasonable price

paint (spray paint, house paint, artist paint – primary colors + black and white are best but everything helps)

glue ( white glue, glue stick, hot glue)

staplers w/ staples

paper (large sheets and by the roll)

mylar (the best possible material for making stencils can be purchase at art supply stores)

wood (1 inch x 2 inch x 8 foot pieces come in bundles of 12 can be purchased at any wood supply store

cardboard tubes (often times these can be found in dumpsters outside of clothing manufactures)

screws (1 inch, 1.5 inch 2 inch, 2.5 inch coarse threaded drywall screws)
