Fashion: Denim Alterations
Maker Series | This program has been canceled
Saturday, 1/27, 1:00 - 5:00 pm
This winter, ACA will host their first Blue Jean Ball - a night fun and festive blues music and dancing, food, drink, art and of course blue jeans. Whether you want to prep your blue jeans for the ball, turn a skirt into bag, or just liven up a denim shirt, this workshop will give you tools, tricks, and expertise to make your dream denim.
Please bring a denim item that you'd like to upcycle, as well as any particular materials you'd like to use. No need to worry if you don't have your project planned - ACA will have lots of fabric, sewing tools, and other accouterments to give your denim some flair.
