As an arts educator, they have taught costume-making and theatre through the NY Public School system as well as through Park Slope’s Piper Theatre Company. They have taught advanced fiber crafts to adults through The Creative Center and Fabscrap. Maddie is a life-long crafter who helps others discover textiles, clothing, and costuming as a means of self expression. They believe in using recycled materials and developing crafting skills as a way to self-regulate, relax, and engage with the everyday objects that make up our lives.

MEET OUR WONDERFUL INTERNS!

We hire local students as interns to learn all about teaching, sewing and crafting, while also earning some extra cash. We are always looking for bright H.S. students who are crafty and love working with kids. Please let anyone you think would be appropriate about us and have them contact Lara about working at MAKE IT! Studio for our after-school or summer camp programs.
