Creativity Shell—a nonprofit trade school in Kingwood—will kick off its 10th anniversary celebration with a fashion show and gala on April 5.
About the program
Founded in 2015, Creativity Shell began as an after-school project at the Kingwood Branch Library with just two sewing machines, Founder and Executive Director Shelancia Daniel said via email March 26. Today, the organization operates out of a 20,000-square-foot facility and runs two mobile studios, which help deliver programming to schools, shelters, juvenile centers and community partners.
Creativity Shell's mission is to teach children essential life and practical skills through creative trades like sewing, cooking and woodworking, according to a news release from the nonprofit. The organization often works with vulnerable populations including children who have been impacted by human trafficking and homelessness, or who have been involved in the juvenile justice system.
