Group Instruction
We’re excited to share our love of textile arts and are able to provide instruction to learners of all ages and skill levels. Stitch Buffalo specializes in creative learning solutions, and we look forward to talking with you about your needs!
Cultural Threads Curriculum: Child and Teen/Adult Education
Stitch Buffalo staff and artists are available to teach private classes to small or large groups, either in our studio or at your location. Our Cultural Threads curriculum establishes a core set of textile art projects/skills that reflect traditional techniques used by many cultures from around the world:
Stencil and Appliqué
Macrame
Weaving
Hand Embroidery
Block Printing
Pom-Pom Making
Jump Rope Making
For each of these disciplines, the curriculum includes three projects that correspond to different ages and ability levels: beginner (elementary school); intermediate (middle school); and advanced (high school through adult).
These classes are ideal for schools, community, centers, churches, and other community organizations. To learn more, click the link below.
Customized Learning Experiences and Team Building
Have a special project in mind? We’re happy to work with you on customized learning experiences that suit the skill level and interests of your group, the fit mission/brand, and the facilities available at your location. Our classes are friendly, casual, and fun—perfect for businesses, clubs, guilds, healthcare facilities, museums, or other organizations. The instruction can also be tailored to meet any time requirements, from lunchtime sessions to full-day events.
