Craft Shop Coordinator, Stephanie Dukat, demonstrates how to make a mask on Friday, August 28, 2020. All semester long students can learn to machine sew and volunteer to make reusable masks. The Craft Shop will have donated materials, but students are welcome to bring their own. By using simple patterns students of any level of sewing experience can learn to make a mask. When the masks are complete they will be washed and then sent to the Saluki Food Pantry to be distributed out to students. Due to limited space in the craft shop at one time to be able to keep students socially distant, students will have to make an appointment with the Craft Shop between 12 to 5 pm Monday through Saturday at craftshop@siu.edu.
