Dress A Girl Around The World
Are you and your friends or family looking to do some volunteer work?
On Wednesday, March 27 at 6:00PM, the Bridgewater Public Library is hosting a Dress A Girl Around the World dress kit workshop. Dress A Girl provides hand-sewn dresses to young girls in need in the US and around the world. At this workshop, we will be creating dress kits for future sewing workshops. This involves measuring and matching fabric to trims and accessories and then bagging them. (No sewing involved) All materials will be provided.
This will be a fun, but meaningful activity for the entire family. Please join us! Community service hours can be earned by doing this event.
