Using state-of-the-art equipment, Ada S. McKinley has partnered with BEE Sewing Institute to teach students ages 17 to 24 all aspects of sewing from choosing the fabric, cutting and assembly. In addition to the opportunity to continue working with BEE Sewing Institute and other apparel companies on future projects, the course also includes how to run a small business, so students are prepared to start taking their own orders.

Classes begin on March 16, 2026. Participants are required to attend an orientation and will be given three options — March 3, March 6, or March 13.
