In 1942 the Army Arts and Crafts Program was established to increase
morale and find artists to help with enhancing buildings and grounds of Army
facilities. The program was so successful that the Army created the “Arts and
Crafts Section of Special Services” to “fulfill the natural human desire to
create, provide opportunities for self-expression serve old skills and develop
new ones and assist the entire recreation program through construction
work, publicity, and decoration.”
Today the Stuttgart Arts and Crafts Branch of Family and MWR is a dynamic and vibrant Arts and Crafts
program with two facilities, retail operations, and a robust catalog of skill developing instructional classes.
We offer activities that provide deployment stress relief and resiliency to Family members and Soldiers
returning from deployment. The Arts and Crafts program continues to promote Soldier and Family
morale, and fosters individual self-improvement and enriches the community’s cultural quality of life by
offering affordable and quality creative arts instruction and hands-on assistance.
It is a pleasure to serve in the Stuttgart community and we hope that you will find your time
here artistically fulfilling and be able to say, “I’m glad I live here.”
How to use this book: At the beginning of the book you will find a Class List with the name of the
class, the age range it’s for, the dates and the times. Some classes span multiple dates, so you’ll want to
make sure you can attend all the sessions. The rest of the book has the class descriptions and prices.
There are also fun facts, tips and other information scattered throughout the book. We hope you enjoy
reading and find this format informative and useful.

you Mommy/Daddy & Me! We’ll supply the
materials, you bring the little fingers and
toes. These classes are geared for children 6
weeks through three years old, and parent
interaction is extremely important.

make a wreath with fall colors in mind, or
alter the colors to make it a special Christmas
wreath that will forever remind you of your
2014 toddler. Adorned with matching
ribbon, this is a beautiful treasure can be
shown off again and again for years to come.

For December’s “Mommy/Daddy and
Me”, we’ll be making personalized keepsake

jewelry that can be proudly worn and shown
off.

ADULT SEWING Use the scissor rating to see if a class is right for your sewing level.
Scissor Ratings
You are brand new to the sewing
machine or perhaps have had a long break
since the last sewing project. Most projects
will be completed in class.
You have completed a few sewing
projects and are probably itching to get your
hands on some more fabric!
These classes focus on
technique and deepening your skill level.
Sometimes you will leave with a completed
project and sometimes you will leave with a
new skill for your sewing basket.
Project Runway, here
I come! You’ve probably tackled some
awesome projects on your own and may be
forgetting basics like cooking and laundry.
Who needs clean clothes when you can make
new ones? These projects require a larger
investment in time and commitment but are
worth every minute!
