What We Offer

Open CreArt Studio — Drop-In Creative Sessions Our Open Studio sessions are drop-in days for makers who want focused creative time in a beautiful, well-lit space surrounded by like-minded people. Bring your current project — a quilt in progress, a beading project, an embroidery hoop — and just create. No instruction, no pressure. Just good company and the kind of uninterrupted making time that's hard to carve out at home.
