REBELLION 25 : CIVIATELIER POP UP
Fundraiser presented by TEN TEN NYC
CIVIATELIER is a laboratory of reconstruction, where things that were meant to be discarded are given new life. It’s not recycling. It’s not just upcycling. It’s a one-of-a-kind creation born from rebellion—this is the art of destruction and creation, transforming the unwanted into the irresistible. Notably, CIVIATELIER has created fits for top artists, athletes, and celebrities like KIDINK, HARDHEADED, and Cash Cobain.
This event is proudly presented by TEN TEN NYC, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to connecting art, artists, and cities through the power of art for healing. By supporting this fundraiser, you’re directly contributing to rebuilding CIVIATELIER, empowering sustainable artistry, and strengthening the local arts community while raising mental health awareness.
