Thrift 2 Fashion

In this four-session, hands-on Thrift to Fashion course, teens will learn the language of fabric, the architecture of garment shapes, and the art of deconstruction, transforming secondhand pieces into bold, original designs. Through guided practice with samples and scraps, students will build foundational construction skills and creative confidence. Sewing machines and extra support will be available outside class time so their runway-ready visions can fully take shape.
