I have always declared that the Philippines needs more
creative spaces. With malls and
commercial establishments being built one after another, a quaint craft supply
store or a small workshop venue always appears to be a breath of fresh air for
artistic souls. Just think of it: a space when creative juices can freely flow,
where untapped potential can redeem itself, where there are no mistakes, just
artsy opportunities.
FIDA (Fashion Institute of Design and Arts) Sewing and Arts
School is the (relatively) new kid on the creative block. Founded in 2009 with schools in Davao and
Cebu, their new branch is located in Silang, Cavite. It is owned by Christine Munda who served as
the academic director of the School for Fashion and the Arts (SOFA) at its
inception. Armed with her business
degree and advanced fashion design education, she put up her own businesses in
apparel, arts and crafts, and interior design.
Her vast experience in fashion and the arts ultimately led her to
putting up FIDA.
The new FIDA location in Silang, Cavite promises to be a
haven for individuals seeking to pursue inspired hobbies and artistic
endeavors. The school will be having its
Open House and Soft Launch this week with a bevy of craft classes and sewing
workshops.
Check out the classes that are offered this summer!
Naturally, the sewing classes caught my eye! And hey, they even have workshops for crafty
kiddies and young sewing enthusiasts!
As a creative, I cannot stress enough that one should allow
herself the gift of inspired creativity.
FIDA Sewing and Arts School sounds like the perfect place for such gift. :)
