A few words from Claudia Biezunski-Rodriguez, owner of Sew Loka and main organizer for this event: "Everything that we wear on our bodies was created using a sewing machine, but as a modern society, I feel like we are very disconnected from our clothing; we were never taught to think about where our clothing comes from or how it was made. But together, through art, I believe that we can all spark a conversation, and we can use our creativity to inspire real change."
