Let's Start Sewing: Session D 8/17-21 Week 9
Youth and Teen | Registration opens 1/25/2026 8:00 PM EST
In this sewing class, students will learn the basics of using a sewing machine, stitching techniques, and fabric handling. As they build their skills, they’ll work towards an exciting final project — sewing their very own stylish summer crop top! Perfect for beginners, this class encourages creativity, patience, and hands-on learning.
- Reduced tuition on youth classes requires a family membership. For a full-day program, a morning class may be combined with an afternoon class. Supervised "bridge" care is available for these students, between 12-1PM, for an additional $40 per week.
