About this Event

The apparel industry is being decentralized in real time. The leaders of the new retail era are not those with massive warehouses—they are the creators who know how to command AI to produce high-demand, market-ready designs on demand.

That creator can be you. In two hours.

The AI to Apparel Micro-Factory is a high-intensity, hands-on production lab taught by Professor Kez and the School at Night Team and sponsored by the Fairfax Neighborhood and Community Services Division to be brough to you for FREE . This is not a passive in-person class. This is a live "Idea-to-Item" sprint where you will learn to master the tools powering the next generation of independent streetwear and lifestyle brands. All ages welcome!


WHAT YOU WILL BUILD

This session is designed to produce a tangible physical product. You do not leave with just notes; you leave with:

  • A high-fidelity, "print-ready" AI graphic generated on your own device.
  • Market-ready design logic tailored for high-demand apparel niches.
  • A physical, live-pressed garment featuring a professional-grade design.
  • The "Micro-Factory" Blueprint for launching a brand with zero overhead.

THE CORE PILLARS
  • Why AI, Why Now: Understand the economic shift toward on-demand manufacturing.
  • The Apparel Market: Identify profitable niches and bypass the "Graphic Designer Tax."
  • Designing Your Image: Master the specific prompting required for apparel-grade graphics.
  • Pressing & Delivery: Press garments live while learning the fulfillment process as we use a professional heat press to bring your digital asset to life.
