Sewing Bee
Bee a part of our creative community.
Join our community and take action one stitch at a time. We want to highlight the flaws of the current fashion system, have some fun, learn new skills and raise vital funds for ACEarts through an upcycled clothing sale.
Coming to a drop -in: You will need to supply your garment, we recommend you select an old piece of clothing you no longer want or purchase something from a charity shop. We have some embellishment fabric, braids and threads but advise you to also bring your own to work on your garment at the session.
Finished garments will need to be delivered to ACEarts in the last week of September 2025. You can drop them off during our opening hours that week or mail them to ACEarts, Market Place, Somerton TA117NB.
The fundraising clothing sale takes place on the morning of
Saturday 4th October from 10 am – 1 pm.
