About the workshop:

Discover, learn, experiment and play with vintage clothing with boutique owner Stephanie Madrinan. This workshop will focus on three elements that are essential to finding, wearing and caring for amazing vintage clothing. We’ll discuss how to shop for vintage clothing, how to care for it, and how to style it. For more information about 31 RAX, visit 31rax.com. 31 RAX is located at 3309 Mission Street San Francisco, CA 94110

In this workshop we will discover ways to shop for vintage clothing and explore what to look for in quality, wear and style. Then, we will talk about how to care for vintage clothing and how to reconstruct garments -mending, cutting, and sewing to make pieces custom-tailored. Last, we will experiment with how to style vintage clothing for ourselves and others with a selection of vintage items hand-picked by Steph.

About the instructor:

Growing up in beach town Pacifica, Stephanie Madrinan has always had a passion for the arts, fashion, and music. Working in corporate America, Steph would supplement her passions by dancing and performing in different companies like New Style Motherlode and Nemenzo. From moving to Los Angeles, to singing, dancing, and booking events, Steph immersed herself in the entertainment industry and extended her network, gained experience, and sold her clothes to everyone she met. In August of 2011, Steph decided to move back to the Bay Area and open a boutique, selling her hand picked, one of a kind clothes. 31 RAX was established in September of 2011. The boutique is now a creative, open space that houses fun, affordable vintage and thrift clothes for men and women, photo backdrops for photo shoots, and local artists' art and photography.   

Tickets to this event will be available August 8th at 10AM

Skill Exchange

Skill Exchange is a workshop series which aims to inspire the community to use their hands and learn traditional, hand making and self-reliance skills in a fun, social setting. Our workshops and events are for curious skill-seekers of all ages. We create opportunities to ask questions, think with our hands and deepen our understanding of how things are made.As handcrafting skills are too often undervalued and under practiced-- Skill Exchange seeks to encourage self-reliance through social skill exchange by bringing together enthusiastic makers and teachers to share their passion and craft with our communities.
