Our Programs

Get creative with hands-on learning at our afterschool programs in NYC public and private schools! Our expert teachers emphasize resilience and sustainability as they guide students 1st-8th grade through hand and machine sewing projects. 

Learn, get inspired, connect, and support the Children's Institute of Fashion Arts! Bring your own project and get sewing advice from an expert - for adult sewists of all levels!

Take your fashion inspiration from sketch to runway in our four-session intensive program for kids 8-12!

We had a great time in the summer of 2022 with children all over NYC!  We made small totes from upcycled fabrics we had around our apartments.  And, we talked about the environment, clothes, and sustainability and how we can do our part towards a clean future.

Take your students on an interdisciplinary hands-on journey through textile science and history using fabric! Offerings include Textile Science for 1st Grade, Textiles in Colonial America for 4th Grade, and Theater Study: Characters through Costume.

We're working hard behind the scenes to create unique hand-on sewing programs open to all kids across NYC!
