The “Wallets for Change” event is a celebration of the thirty-six participants of Magic Markers, a paid employment initiative teaching teens job skills with a focus on citizenship, written word, design, and entrepreneurship.
In Magic Markers 2018, participants created wallets informed by basic economic principals and their ideas for bridging the inequity that often plagues inner cities.
The event will be a marketplace where participants have the opportunity to sell their wallets, each one reflecting their idea of citizenship. In order to purchase a wallet, please bring cash; wallets will be sold at $10 each. The teens will not be accepting card payments.
100% of the proceeds from wallets purchased go directly to the teen. These unique, handcrafted wallets support inner-city teens and make great gifts! Come start your Christmas shopping early this year!
