Welcome to the enchanting world of North Carolina, a magical state where the trees whisper tales of ancient folklore and the rivers hum lullabies that soothe the soul. This place, with its majestic mountains that touch the sky, and its golden beaches that kiss the vast ocean, is home to a special group of kids. These are not your average, everyday kids, no siree! They possess a talent so magnificent, so incredibly delightful that even the moon blushes with envy. Meet the 'Stitching Sorcerers', a band of lively and crafty kids who wield their embroidery hoops and threads like the most seasoned wizards wield their magic wands. They stitch and sew, creating a whirlwind of vibrant colors and enchanting designs that would make the rainbow look dull. Their fingers dance on the fabric, weaving tales of adventure, friendship, and magic, one stitch at a time. Leading this talented brigade is their whimsical captain, Sir Puffy the Threadbear. With a body made entirely of the softest thread and a heart full of laughter, Sir Puffy is as hilarious as he is wise. With a pair of glasses perched precariously on his button nose and a thimble for a hat, he guides the Stitching Sorcerers in their embroidery endeavours. Under his watchful eye, every hoop sings a symphony of stitches, each thread tells a tale, and every fabric becomes a canvas for the children's boundless imagination. In the magical state of North Carolina, where the sunsets paint the sky with colors of joy, and the moonlight weaves stories in the stars, the Stitching Sorcerers, under the guidance of their goofy captain, create a world filled with stitches, laughter, and endless fun.

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment. This distinctive blend is what sets Spark apart, allowing us to reach and inspire a multitude of children in truly meaningful ways. With an array of offerings to accommodate various schedules and needs, Spark has something for everyone. Our services extend beyond the standard after school and weekend classes to include holiday and summer camps, birthday parties, portfolio preparation, private classes, and custom pods. We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn. For our families in Pennsylvania, we run the program from our family studio there. And if you're not in close proximity to any of our locations, don't worry. We offer in-home instruction and virtual options to ensure that Spark can reach you, no matter where you are.
