i love a good sock monkey.

but really, who doesn’t ?  my aunt clara made me many as a child.  hers were very traditional and fill me with fond memories.  i’ve always thought a “sock monkey baby shower” was a great idea.  and now, feel even more compelled to do it since finding these cutie-pies via freshart.org.

this amazing program colloborates with local social service, community, and institutional art programs in an effort to bring the talented work of marginalized artists into the public eye.

keep the love flowing–volunteer at one of their sock monkey workshops!

SOCK MONKEY WORKSHOP PROGRAM FOR ARTISTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS Volunteers are needed to sew sock monkey dolls. We sell the dolls online to benefit fresh art’s programs. You do not need to know how to make them, we’ll teach you how. However, you must be able to sew by hand. We meet every other Monday evening from 6:30-8 pm at the fresh art office. Please call us (646-262-3273) if you are interested in joining us.
