DESCRIPTION:Once each month\, we invite a sustainable textile vendor to come present their materials and processes. Join us for August's Textile Tuesday featuring Dropel Fabrics.\n\nDropel says  "We make clothing life proof. We enhance natural fabrics to perform like synthetics by taking hydrophobic nanotechnology and fusing the natural fiber’s soft hand feel and breathability. We can execute material science breakthrough by taking our tech and integrating it directly into our client’s supply chain\, while still constantly developing new technologies for them. That’s the beauty of working with us -- we focus on function\, so you can focus on fashion."\n\nDropel develops performance-based natural\, cotton fibers through material science and process technology and offers to designers a water and stain repellent fabric that maintains softness and breathability — allowing your customers to stay clean\, dry\, fresh\, and comfortable.\n\nThis is one Textile Tuesday you won't want to miss!\n\nRSVP below.\n\n4pm presentation begins\n5pm audience questions\n6pm end of event\n\nGeneral public: $10\nPioneering members: free\nEmerging and Studying members: $5\n\nMember discount will show up in the cart.\n\n\n\nBeverages sponsored by Runa tea

SUMMARY:WHOLEGARMENT 3D Knitting Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Brooklyn Fashion + Design Accelerator is offering a WHOLEGARMENT workshop for knitwear designers of all levels. In this intimate one day workshop you will design and produce a knitted WHOLEGARMENT and create a simulation of your sweater design.

Designed garments are produced in one entire piece\, three-dimensionally\, directly on the knitting machine. These garments do not require expensive\, time-consuming and costly post-production labor and there is zero waste. At the end of the workshop\, you will leave with a WHOLEGARMENT of your pattern design created in class.\n\nThis workshop is in collaboration with Futureworks NYC and will appeal to those actively involved in knitwear design\, those who wish to venture into knitwear for the first time\, and anyone involved in the design and specification of knitwear ranges.\n\nRSVP with your Futureworks code below.\n\nWednesday\, August 16\, 2017\n9:30 am to 5:30 pm\nIncludes materials and lunch.\n\nFutureworks Shops provides New Yorkers with prototyping and production credits\, access to coworking opportunities\, studio time\, mentorship\, and events across the city. At each of the Shops\, you’ll find advanced manufacturing machinery\, an engaged\, supportive community\, and expert leaders. No more wondering where you can create the next great product or iterate on your existing one. It’s all right here. Futureworks Shops is part of NYCEDC’s Futureworks NYC initiative and is spearheaded by SecondMuse and Imagination in Space.\n\nFutureworks NYC is a key component of the City’s Industrial Action Plan to help emerging and existing manufacturers promote\, adopt\, and create advanced technologies and increase local production. To ensure these technologies are made accessible to all New Yorkers\, New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) created Futureworks NYC as a platform of shared resources from educational programming to access to equipment and space\, and connections within the growing community.\n\n\n\n \n\nGet your tickets below!
