Join us this Winter Break for a hands-on Fiber & Sewing Experience designed for youth (aged 9+) who love crafting, creating, and learning new skills.

Wednesday, February 18- Morning Session (optional) 

Community Service & Sewing Machine Basics

Start the day by giving back! We'll work on a community service project, and participants will have dedicated time to get to know their sewing machines- perfect for beginners or anyone wanting a refresher.

Participants may register for just the morning session or stay for the full experience. 

Wednesday, February 18- Afternoon Session- Careers in Fiber & Hands-On Fiber Arts

Learn from industry experts about exciting careers in fiber making! Then dive into creating your own yarn and experimenting with dying techniques.  This begins the day-and-a-half Fiber Experience. 

Thursday, February 19- Create Your Own Wool Cowl

We'll reunite to transform your hand-dyed fibers into a cozy wool cowl(scarf).  This session brings together all the skills learned and materials created on Day 1.

Space is limited, so register quickly: https://apps.cce.cornell.edu/event_registration/main/events_landing.cfm?event=Winter_Break_Textile_253
