Sew Many Mittens
January 10, 2026
Kick off our 350th year by spreading warmth and joy! Join neighbors and friends to create 350 cozy mittens from recycled wool sweaters for community members in need. No sewing experience necessary! There's still time to show your support by registering to volunteer or donating wool.
Our 350th Anniversary isn’t just a celebration, it’s a once-in-a-generation opportunity to invest in creativity, community, and craft. In addition to attending these events, you or your business can play a pivotal role by becoming a sponsor. We’ve created sponsorship packages that highlight your support, connect you with thousands of community members, and showcase your commitment to arts education. Together, we can ensure the Eliot School continues to thrive for generations to come. Learn More
