Students Helping to Invent New Expressions (SHINE) is a community service arts club on the Johns Hopkins University Homewood Campus dedicated to the teaching, making, and selling of crafts such as beaded items, jewelry, knit/crochet items, and donating the proceeds to charity and our Baltimore community.
If you are interested in signing up to help man the table for our Breezeway sales, or to sell your own things next to us at the table, please contact us!
Anyone who is interested in a board position is welcome to attend our next board meeting (check the Calendar). If you have not attended a board meeting yet, please e-mail us and tell us what board (and if you know, which duties/jobs) you are interested in. :)
Because we are a community service organization, we will dedicate the items made with our materials to donation and sales to fundraise. If you would like to keep an item you have made with our materials, there will be a flat materials cost fee. We do not have any hidden or unreasonable fees, and will be dedicated to providing the resources needed to teach general members, as well as contributing to charities and the community. We also welcome donations of supplies or money from general members to help fund our projects, keep our club running, and provide for charities and other causes.
