Sewing machine repair persons
Photographers
E-Commerce volunteers to write product listings (no coding knowledge needed)
Bookkeeper
E-Marketers

Other skilled volunteers. We'd love to share in your talent!

Because we only have 3 hours a week together, we are very busy when we meet. We hope you will contribute your unique skills!

Visiting Our Workspace

We can be found at our West Side workspace on most Saturdays from 10AM-1PM. We are located in the basement of the Catholic Charities Immigration and Refugee Assistance Program building at 9 Herkimer Street, Buffalo NY 14213 (corner of Herkimer and Albany).

Please use the side door on the North side of the building (all other doors are locked) and go down the stairs. We are in the classroom to your right at the bottom of the stairs.

We do not have a retail storefront, but you are welcome to visit us and design a custom order. If you'd like to shop from our existing inventory, please email ahead. We occasionally take a holiday off or may have all our inventory at a festival or craft show!
