Sewing at ANKAA

"The intellect always cuts and divides like a pair of scissors. The heart sews things together and unites like a needle. The tailor uses both."

Learn more about our Sewing classes

In September 2018, we opened the doors for our first sewing classes.

Crafting skills and creativity are the heartbeat of our mission, forming an integral part of the path to social inclusion.

​

Our sewing classes, designed for students with different levels and aspirations, are a testament to our commitment to skill development. Our classes are held by experienced teachers or tailors, guiding our students in acquiring or improving their skills.

​

The goal of our Crafting Careers program is to provide high-quality technical sewing skills, awareness of rights and responsibilities of the Greek labour market and improved language skills. The program is tailored to meet the demands of the fashion production industry and provides opportunities for talented individuals.
