About this Event

Welcome to Fashion Arts Workshop! Become the designer, tailor, and model! Each student will sketch, drape, sew, and style a complete outfit, and present it in a fashion show for friends and family in the final session.

This is an immersive, hands on experience for any children age 7-12 interested in fashion design or sewing.

No experience necessary! We provide all the materials, and our skilled instructors will guide kids through the entire process, from choosing fabric to making their ideas a reality.

Agenda
Day 1 - Introductions, hand sewing 101

Info: Welcome designers! We're diving right into the process with our garment construction demo. Next, we'll learn basic hand sewing skills, and create a small take-home project. Finally, browse and select from our beautiful array of fabrics and materials to use in your design!


Day 2 - All about design

Info: We’ll start working with our fabric! Students will conceptualize and articulate their garment designs. Create a fashion sketch, and learn cutting and draping techniques that will bring it to life!


Day 3 - Garment making workshop

Info: We will continue to work on our outfits using hand sewing. Depending on time / experience, students may use a sewing machine to assist their process! We'll also conceptualize and create accessories and embellishments that will tie our looks together.


Day 4 - Fashion show!

Info: We'll put the final touches on sewing our garments and styling our outfits! Please bring your accessories, shoes, etc. We will practice runway walking, before presenting our fashion show to friends and family! Please join us at 2:00 PM for the show & reception.
