MAKE IT STUDIO

Description

We are a Park Slope based fashion, sewing and crafts studio with a creative after school and camp program for kids ages 7 to 13. Using a sewing machine (no experience necessary), and tons of fun materials, your child will MAKE hip clothes, accessories, plushies and plenty more! We have a maximum of 9 children at a time, so they can get the proper attention they need.

We encourage individual thinking and creativity by letting our students have the freedom to create their designs. By offering principles and guidance to help guide this creativity the children will be in a formal yet playful environment that will both teach and entertain.

We offer classes/camps at 540 President street, Studio 2i, Buzzer #38.

  • Review from the Spring 2024 Afterschool Survey

    Program: day camp when school was closed Age: 9 and 13 Types of Program sewing and crafts Review our family has been attending after school and day camps with make it studio since they were in the old stone house. we heard about the owner Lara Kazan through many enthusiastic recommendations here on PSP and we have loved every class our kids have taken with her over the years including a day camp this fall on veterans day Skills Learned sewing and building Changes we miss the old stone house location because my youngest is obsessed with the museum there but happy Lara has a nice large dedicated studio space for the program now and they still eat lunch and play outside at JJ byrne from the new studio so that was great for my kiddos
  • Review from the 2024 Summer Camp Survey

    Location: President Street (Gowanus) REVIEW: Wow! Our rising second grader has been interested in fashion and was delighted to do two weeks with Make It Studio where she learned how to use sewing machines. The first week was one where they made different items for the bedroom each day. The second week was a fashion week where they made clothes and accessories throughout the week. They even had a fashion show at the end of the week. The staff to kiddo ratios were terrific! Also, we signed up for extended hours which not many folks did. What resulted is that our kiddo got extra project time and help, building her confidence and skills. We strongly recommend Make It Studio for any elementary school aged kiddo who is interested in learning how to sew. CHANGES: Can't think of anything. DETAILS: Age of child; 7 … Weeks attended: 2

  • sewing class

    Yes yes yes again to make it and Lara Kazan!! All my three kids have taken multiple classes with her and LOVED them all. They have made great items we are still using years later and just the class was fantastic for our family. The felt kitty fanny pack my middle son made is a special favorite and I always get tons of compliments on it when I wear it out. Tound it through a psp rec also!!
  • Beginner sewing / fashion design summer camp for teens ?

    Both my 10 y old and 7y old have done Make It and TAC, and while both are great Make It is more focused on using the sewing machine and making projects the kids can use/wear. My 10 year old has accessories she made with Lara that she’s been wearing for years.
  • Beginner sewing / fashion design summer camp for teens ?

    Seconding make it!! My kiddo has been going to Lara’s classes and camps for a couple of years and they are the best. Several weeks this summer are related to fashion design, I think. You can see the theme of each week on the website.
