Aprann Brode/Learn to Knit made for JE

Check out a mini-book created by Jakmel Ekspresyon member Kristen Maier for workshops that she will be conducting this week at Jakmel Ekspresyon this week. In addition to conducting workshops, Kristen will be distributing yarn donated by friends of JE in Chicago and across the nation.

Amazing News! We have the crates!

We’ve got no dearth of superlatives here! Our crates, recently cleared through customs are now safely in the hands of our friends Grassroots United . They will be helping us to move the crates to Jakmel, Haiti in order to set up a computer lab with the help of Techne Labs. Yay!

Big News!

Big news! Our containers have been cleared through customs!
Other big news- Jakmel Ekspresyon is looking for a new space. We are now housed on only the second floor and this makes the space inaccessible to our handicapped members. We’re actively pursing a new, accessible, Jakmel Ekspresyon center. Also we’re still working with Techne Labs on the computer lab. Want to help? Donate!
