Join us for an engaging journey into the rich history and timeless techniques of Sashiko Stitching! This centuries-old Japanese art form is celebrated for its geometric patterns and practical origins in repairing and reinforcing garments. Experience the calming, meditative qualities of sashiko as you create stunning designs through the art of hand stitching.

"Through our Art Enrichment Program, we hope to expand the possibilities that children see for themselves. We want to help them ‘color their worlds.’ I believe that experiencing the arts enhances our view of the world and our place in it, and gives us agency to create rich and vibrant lives."
