Mini Makers Club-Session 2 (6 weeks)

NOTE:MINI MAKERS SESSION 2 is for students who have participated in the previous mini makers club session or have approval. <br><br>In 2024-25 Dope Soul Studio created and ran a pilot program for young entrepreneurs called The Liberty Project. The purpose was to give young creatives a chance to work in a studio setting and learn skills and concepts that will encourage and support entrepreneurship. Participants in the program were taught sewing, loom knitting, computer & cricut program skills and much more. I would love to extend the opportunity to my younger friends to join a "Mini Makers Club". The concepts and the skills taught will remain the same (age appropriate) but rather than creating a 'business plan' we will be working towards creating their own quality handmade items. <br><br>Recommendation for age is 7-10 years old but students who are interested and have spent time in the studio will be considered on a case by case basis. Mini Makers Club will run for a total of 6 classes: every Monday February 23-March 30th 10am-11:30am. Club Fee is $180.00 for 6weeks which covers all materials needed to create projects. <br><br>Questions : casey@dopesoulart.com
