November

Accessories Galore!

Wednesday, November 6, 5:30-7:00pm, YouthBiz Lab

Whether you put fashion before function or vice versa, this workshop will show you both are possible!  Participants will learn how to use just one piece of fabric to make a belt, a tie, or a headband!  This is the epitome of efficiency, as students can apply all skills to making whatever fashionable accessory best fits their needs while learning how to make the other accessories as well.  Participants will think through the pricing of each item as well as the different target market for each item.  Every participant will leave with a completed accessory.  Ideal for ages 10-14.  There is a $10 fee for materials.
