Fashion Lab 2023: A Sewing, Upcycling, and Accessories Workshop for Middle Schoolers
For ages 10-15
Bring your A-game, designers!! This class is ALL about exploring your own personal style and learning how to make clothes and upcycle vintage finds to create a wardrobe that reflects YOU.
One of our most popular classes, now for middle schoolers! Kids in this class will be lead by local fashion guru and clothesmaker Susanne Grabowski, where they will get to design and make anything that reflects their individual style whether that’s jewelry, clothing, bags, accessories, hair accessories, or hats. As part of the class, students will learn all about the history of fashion design, from avant garde and haute couture to urban streetstyle and rocker chic. Depending on their vision, children will learn how to drape and sew, sew from patterns, and/or upcycle vintage finds into one of a kind wearable fashion.
This class will run for 10 weeks, each week building on the prior week’s work. Children will have an optional additional two weeks to drop in with Susanne and finish their pieces before the runway show. Students in the class will have the option to show their work at a runway show as part of Wilder Arts’ Spring Showcase in March 2024.
Tuesdays 5:30pm-7:30pm | November 28, 2023 to February 6, 2024 (Optional drop in days on Feb 13 & 20. No class on Dec 26th.)
