Update #2: Assemble class ideas
29Apr07
Classes will play a vital role at Assemble. Last week they demanded a lot of thought and planning. Here is a sampling of the classes we’re in the process of confirming. What do you think?
- How to open an online shop I (basics of setting up a website)
- How to open an online shop II (customize your website with HTML)
- Printmaking (make your own cards/stationery)
- Printmaking (editions class)
- Drawing I
- Sewing I (make a tote bag)
- Grammar/punctuation
- Sewing cloth diapers
- Crocheting puppets and toys
- Screenprinting
- Toddler crafts
- Preschool crafts
- Birthday parties
Other random things we did this week: talked with Josh Jubinsky about commercial real estate, killed the whole Assemble business idea, revived the whole Assemble business idea, added email update form to the website, added assemble flickr photos to the blog, organized meetings with more teachers next week, and checked out commercial space in Murray Hill.
Grammar? F yeah!
This list looks great. Additionally, I’d enjoy a(n organic) soapmaking class. And maybe a class on how to sew cases for your iPod, digital camera, etc.?
I am sure you already know this, but you could get good ideas from ReadyMade magazine and Make magazine.
Owen - I’d be interested in an organic soap class too. I’ll jot your ideas down.
Fawn - Thanks - ReadyMade, Make and also Craft magazine are all great for ideas and inspiration.
Thanks for your feedback!
I could help with a linoleum printing or plexiglass etching class, if you need someone for that. How about cooking classes?
Seana -
We are definitely looking in to cooking classes. We currently have a lino printing instructor lined up, but tell me more about plexiglass etching! Email me: teach@assemblelounge.com
Thanks!
