RAI Holiday Elves WorkSHOP

About This Grant

RAI will be hosting an artisan-led RAI Holiday Elves WorkSHOP! in collaboration with Lake City community partners, Children's Home Society of Washington (CHSW), Build Lake City Together (BLCT), Thriftology, and Coyote North, and the help of our strong volunteer community to continue to introduce North Seattle to RAI artisans (refugee and immigrant women). The event will be on December 7, 2022 from 3:00 - 7:00 pm located at 12337 Lake City Way NE. Artisan's handmade crafts will be available and during the event, two to three artisans will demonstrate their sewing skills by offering a `mending and embellishment session` with community members to bedazzle clothing or upcycle holiday ornaments using products from Thriftology, Lake City's local thrift store. There will also offer fabric card-making using upcycled fabric to design holiday cards that guests can take home. This project will be completed by February 28, 2023.
