Step into the transformed Studio 1300 in New York City this Halloween, where creativity meets celebration in an event unlike any other. The Sip & Stitch Halloween Party offers an immersive evening blending hands-on leather crafting with vibrant disco vibes inspired by the legendary Studio 54. Located on the 13th floor in Midtown Manhattan, Studio 1300 becomes a playground for makers and partygoers alike for 3.5 hours of artistic expression, great music, and festive community spirit.
This unique workshop invites guests to design and create their own “Unisexy” crossbody bag under the expert guidance of designer Anthony Luciano and his team. Crafted from genuine leather with quality hardware, each bag measures 12” wide by 6” tall, perfect as an everyday accessory or a memorable keepsake. Even if you’ve never worked with leather or stitching tools before, the studio atmosphere is welcoming and fun — Anthony’s team provides step-by-step support for all skill levels, so beginners and seasoned creatives can thrive.
While you work on your bag, enjoy bottomless wine, a specialty cocktail crafted just for the event, and “disco snacks” ranging from playful bites to sweet treats. The room pulsates with live DJ beats spinning disco classics, encouraging guests to dance between stitching sessions or just soak up the nostalgic vibe of a glittering disco ball.
What makes this party truly special is its combination of hands-on craftwork and high-energy celebration, a rare blend where you can both focus intimately on a creative project and let loose on a dance floor—all under one roof. Studio 1300 itself has earned a reputation in New York’s art and design scene for innovative workshops and immersive experiences, and this Halloween event epitomizes that spirit.
Set in bustling Midtown, Studio 1300 is easily accessible for locals and visitors looking to combine holiday fun with creativity. Whether you’re celebrating with friends or marking a special occasion, this event offers a memorable night of self-expression and connection.
Complete with inclusive guidance, quality materials, and a welcoming atmosphere, the Sip & Stitch Halloween Party is more than a workshop—it’s a celebration of craft, community, and costume. Sequins are encouraged, costumes optional, and an open mind is essential. Step out of the ordinary this Halloween and make something you can wear and dance in all year round.
