Rebel Nell is one of the most recognizable Detroit jewelry brands. When you see someone wearing it, you know that person cares about empowering and uplifting women and making a change.
We’re pleased to welcome you to visit Rebel Nell’s new studio and production facility in Detroit’s transforming Northwest Goldberg neighborhood. We’ll meet co-founder and CEO Amy Peterson who will talk about the organization’s mission, successes and goals. And we’ll have the opportunity to shop Rebel Nell’s beautiful collection.
Rebel Nell began in 2013 with the mission to employ women facing barriers to employment in Detroit, educate them on financial management, life wellness and entrepreneurship, and empower them to transition to a life of independence.
Rebel Nell partners with local organizations to seek out women with barriers to employment, hire these women as Creative Designers, teaching them to craft unique, wearable art from fallen layers of graffiti, while providing wrap around services to transition them to an independent life.
