I got this email yesteday. OSFO loves to make sock monkeys so we’re probably going to do this.  Not sure where Gold Street is. Think it’s Greenpoint.

Join us for an afternoon of creating original sock monkeys for fresh
art’s sock monkey program. fresh art is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit
organization dedicated to providing expanded artistic, personal
development, and entrepreneurial opportunities to New York City artists
with special needs. The sock monkeys we create this afternoon will be
sold to raise funds to support fresh art’s programs. All skill levels
are welcome, though basic hand sewing skills are helpful.

Saturday, October 25, 2008; 10am-3pm
325 Gold St, 3rd floor, Brooklyn, NY 11222
Ages 12 & up are welcome.
