Sewing Classes are in person again!

Class Schedule:

Women’s Sewing classes on Tuesdays 10am-12pm at 110 Compton Rd. Cincinnati, OH 45202.

Sewing and Art

This weekly class brings people together to build community and friendship, while learning to sew and do art. In addition, attendees are provided all of the materials to learn sewing techniques, work on projects and determine "give back" projects. The "give back" projects came from an idea the attendees had. They wanted to share their appreciation by helping others. The projects are determined by the attendees and have consisted of making bags for the homeless, NICU gowns, tote bags for pantries, and dog beds for animal shelters.

Participants learn how to take donations and create something beautiful from it. Many have taken these items to showcase their work at art exhibits and sell it.

Dream Makers

The Dream Maker program helps clients use existing skills and passions to start their own businesses and secure a stable income.


Makerspace

Heartfelt Tidbits has come to understand the importance of improving our clients' mental health. The maker space is a representation of that belief. In addition to the therapeutic benefits of creating art, this program allows refugees and immigrants to pursue creative entrepreneurship.

Visitors are welcome to contact us to schedule a visit to see the different ways clients engage with and produce art.
