Working with local artists Bobbie Vance, Annie Dimit, Jessica Bricker, Carrie Sample Booth, and Liz Roney, PUP continues to design and develop wallets, clutches, and messenger bags made from the roof material of the former RCA Dome. Proceeds from the sale of these items will benefit the Indianapolis Parks Department. PUP plans to help IndyParks use the funds to install the same material, in the form of shade structures and pavilions, throughout the city. Each Dome Accessory is hand crafted and uniquely designed.

 

For large batch orders, please contact us directly at: info@peopleup.org.
