    We did it! Thank you so much for supporting APAC arts and helping us move into the 21st century with this investment.

    We look forward to capturing performances with this professional equipment and finding ways to connect more people with the talent, skill, and dedication our scholars exemplify.

    Lights, camera, APAC is GO!”

    Ms. Newell

  • Sew You Think You Can Theatre? ACT 2

    Funded Nov 2, 2020

    Thank you all so much for helping me complete my classroom set of sewing machines! My students will be able to benefit greatly from having these quality machines. I could not have done it without you.

    Theatre happens thanks to teamwork, and I greatly appreciate your becoming part of the APAC team by being one of our contributors.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Newell

  • Sew You Think You Can Theatre?

    Funded Oct 23, 2020

    Thank you all so much for your support. You have ensured my students will have three, quality sewing machines for years to come. I am immensely grateful for your generosity!

    Since this project was funded in less than 36 hours, I intend to keep the momentum going to take advantage of doubled donations for this coming week. Chip in again if you want to contribute to the next set of machines!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Newell

As passionate theatre students, my students need and want to learn more about the creation of costumes. Our school does not have any fully operational sewing machines, so I am offsetting the cost of buying six high quality machines by organizing this DonorsChoose project. Costumes are my specialty, and, with help from donors, I can help my students learn a skill that they will carry with them throughout their life. The Janome sewing machines I am purchasing are an industry standard, known for their ease of use and reliability. With a small classroom set, we can alternate between preparing to stitch, observation, and stitching (sanitizing machine between uses). I can also use these machines to help craft unique, and properly fitted clothing and costumes for our performers.
