Decorate Costumes for Children in Hospitals

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Only Make Believe

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 16 people are interested

Join us at our Monroe Street Market Arts Walk office to help us decorate costumes for our performances, no sewing skills required. Bring your imagination, we’ll provide the rest. Only Make Believe creates and performs interactive theatre in children's hospitals and care facilities. The costumes you will decorate are for the children who participate in our performances. Costumes are the first step in creating a world of the child's imagination, seemingly worlds away from their hospital room. Contact us today to register. You will receive a confirmation email within 3 business days to confirm your registration.

We are always in need of used CDs, ribbons, bubbles and fabric remnants. Feel free to bring some with you if you have any on hand that you are interested in donating!

Mission Statement

Only Make Believe is dedicated to the principle that freeing a child's imagination is a valuable part of the healing process. Our vision is to bring joy and inspiration to as many children with chronic illness and disabilities as possible, across the United States and around the world.

Description

Only Make Believe is a non-profit organization that creates and performs interactive theatre for children in hospitals, care facilities, and schools with dedicated special education programs. We visit these sites with professional actors for three-week performance cycles. Our interactive program engages, inspires and empowers children living with chronic illness and disabilities through the collaborative process of theater.

We started performing our interactive shows in one hospital in 1999, and now, thanks to your support we’re in more than 50 hospitals in New York City, Washington D.C., and beyond!
