In 1942 the Army Arts and Crafts Program was established to increase

morale and find artists to help with enhancing buildings and grounds of Army

facilities. The program was so successful that the Army created the “Arts and

Crafts Section of Special Services” to “fulfill the natural human desire to

create, provide opportunities for self-expression serve old skills and develop

new ones and assist the entire recreation program through construction

work, publicity, and decoration.”

Today the Stuttgart Arts and Crafts Branch of Family and MWR is a dynamic and vibrant Arts and Crafts

program with two facilities, retail operations, and a robust catalog of skill developing instructional classes.

We offer activities that provide deployment stress relief and resiliency to Family members and Soldiers

returning from deployment. The Arts and Crafts program continues to promote Soldier and Family

morale, and fosters individual self-improvement and enriches the community’s cultural quality of life by

offering affordable and quality creative arts instruction and hands-on assistance.

It is a pleasure to serve in the Stuttgart community and we hope that you will find your time

here artistically fulfilling and be able to say, “I’m glad I live here.”

How to use this book: At the beginning of the book you will find a Class List with the name of the

class, the age range it’s for, the dates and the times. Some classes span multiple dates, so you’ll want to

make sure you can attend all the sessions. The rest of the book has the class descriptions and prices.

There are also fun facts, tips and other information scattered throughout the book. We hope you enjoy

reading and find this format informative and useful.

MOMMY/DADDY & ME You’ve asked for it, and we’re happy to bring

you Mommy/Daddy & Me! We’ll supply the

materials, you bring the little fingers and

toes. These classes are geared for children 6

weeks through three years old, and parent

interaction is extremely important.

HANDPRINT WREATH

We’ll be using handprints on cut out paper to

make a wreath with fall colors in mind, or

alter the colors to make it a special Christmas

wreath that will forever remind you of your

2014 toddler. Adorned with matching

ribbon, this is a beautiful treasure can be

shown off again and again for years to come.

SALT DOUGH ORNAMENTS

For December’s “Mommy/Daddy and

Me”, we’ll be making personalized keepsake

ornaments. Learn the craft and make it an

annual tradition to record the growth and

cuteness of your little one throughout the

years.

ART EDGE Patch Arts and Crafts Center has a

partnership with Child Youth and School

Services (CYSS) to bring you the Art Edge

program. Art Edge courses are four week

developmental courses designed to provide a

more in depth look at that particular art

form. Art Edge courses must be registered for

through the Parent Central Services office.

wonderful series of craft projects. Get ready

for St. Nikolas Tag with decoupage wooden

clogs, get your house smelling amazing with

cinnamon ornaments, decorate your home

with 3-dimensional paper snowflakes and

make an advent wreath from fresh greenery.

JEWELRY CREATIONS

Now is the perfect time of year to bring

out your creative side and design something

that comes from your heart. What’s better

than jewelry? We will be using beads, wires,

photos, and much much more to create

jewelry that can be proudly worn and shown

off.

SLEEPOVER SUPPLIES

Get ready for your next sleepover with

friends by making a matching set of

accessories to take with you! In this class you

will make a snuggly blanket, a pillowcase and

a pair of pajama pants to be stylish at your

next party! Pre-requisite: Beginning Sewing 1

AND 2, available at Patch Arts and Crafts

Center.

CREATIVE GIFTING

Gifts are fun, but made even more

special when thought and time are involved.

Learn a variety of skills to make personal gifts

for this holiday season. From building up a

gift box, making your own bows and even a

photo gift made from you to them. Each gift

is sure to reflect that it was made with love.

ADULT SEWING Use the scissor rating to see if a class is right for your sewing level.

Scissor Ratings

You are brand new to the sewing

machine or perhaps have had a long break

since the last sewing project. Most projects

will be completed in class.

You have completed a few sewing

projects and are probably itching to get your

hands on some more fabric!

These classes focus on

technique and deepening your skill level.

Sometimes you will leave with a completed

project and sometimes you will leave with a

new skill for your sewing basket.

Project Runway, here

I come! You’ve probably tackled some

awesome projects on your own and may be

forgetting basics like cooking and laundry.

Who needs clean clothes when you can make

new ones? These projects require a larger

investment in time and commitment but are

worth every minute!

SEWING MACHINE OR ROTARY

CUTTING CERTIFICATION $5 EA

Sewing machine certification is required

before you can take a class or rent our
