Project Funway BeaconArtStudios.com Beacon Art Studios 1234 Rte. 9, Wappingers Falls For budding fashion designers, head to Beacon Art Studios' "Project Funway." Fashionistas turn old fabric and materials into brand-new outfits and accessories while they learn how to sketch and sew their own clothes. Each morning, campers work on small group projects to learn about a different aspect of design, and then work on individual projects using a sewing machine and mannequin that the camp provides. "Founder and Creative Director Eva's approach is to allow the children to create. A straight seam is much less important than imagination," says Lenny Intoni of Beacon Art Studios. He says the camp teaches kids how to budget for their creations by giving each camper "fashion money" that they can use to buy used clothing and new fabric at the camp store. "Each day, two children are in charge of the store and take turns throughout the week tidying up and working with their 'customers,'" Intoni says. Each week-long session culminates in a fashion show.
