Join East End Arts in a community service project that helps provide clothing to communities in South Africa!
“We’re not just sending dresses, we’re sending hope.”

Do you enjoy sewing?
Follow an easy pattern to make a little sun dress from a pillow case!

Are you not a sewer but would like to contribute?
Bring a (new) pillow case or sewing options (1/4” elastic or double-fold seam tape) to the East End Arts School for the sewing group to use on their Little Dresses for Africa project.

Join a casual group of sewers Tuesday nights, 4:30 PM – 6:30 PM, at the East End Arts School to create dresses together and share material! Or sew at home and drop them off at the East End Arts School.

Visit Riverhead Vacuum and Sewing Center, located at 31 E Main Street in Riverhead, NY – they are offering 10% off your sewing notions (elastic & seam tape) for this project. Mention East End Arts Little Dresses for Africa Sewing Group coordinated by Diane Giardi to receive this discount.

Contact East End Arts Education Director, Diane Giardi at 631-369-2171 or dgiardi@nulleastendarts.org if you would like to learn more.

Thank you!
