December marked the end of our partnership Activating Community Leadership course with @uspuoft. This free 9-week course welcomed guest speakers weekly to speak on local issues. The course aimed to support participants in advocating for themselves and their community.

Congratulations to all graduates and special thanks to the @uspuoft, a long-time partner.

With our creative partner @designwith.ca we had th

With our creative partner @designwith.ca we had the pleasure to work with @maxwellfsims on a Business Strategy Internship with @mitacs wrapping up last month. Through this collaboration, we explored the question, "How might we find opportunity in manufacturing products from home with under explored materials and tools?"

This exploration aligned with our core values in the @regentparksewingstudio to reuse and repurpose materials through collaboration to create one of a kind pieces.

We love the results of the exploration highlighted through both photos and videos. Three products were developed:

Fan: Aiming to use traits of rubber tiles, Fan is an alternative to sticky notes, a quick way to add or remove multiple pieces of paper to the wall while reducing the number of pin holes needed

Curve Tray: A result of folding experiments, it can be easily flattened, slipped into a notebook, and constructed, a catch all for users who change work stations often

Air Basket: Evolved from a door handle that doubles as a place to hang items it's not necessarily suited for, the basket exposes opportunities that may arise through a non traditional connection of materials and processes

In November, we attended the Hidden Talents Film Screening at @gbcollege Waterfront which highlighted the work and cultural practices of local sewists like Asmaa Toulimat, Souher Toulaymat, Lejla Krdzalic, Zohra Bibi, Zohreh Shaba and Urfa Butt. (You may notice many of these names are members of our Sewing Studio!)

Special thanks to the Studio's very own Shahrzad in her dedication in supporting sewists, cultivating community and being a local champion!

Thank you @fashionexchangefx for putting together this amazing project and film team.
