Functional Crafts


Functional Crafts are monthly family based workshops.  Each workshop has a make and take so you can see and take home.  The first Saturday of every month has a class one in the 10AM-12PM and another for teens and adults from 3:00 PM until 5:00 PM.

MINI FAQS
The projects are for children ages 6 - 12 accompanied by a parent(s) or adult(s)
The cost is $20.00 per project that your family takes home. 
Because some of the projects work with some tools that are not toddler/pre-k             friendly, there are no small children under age six.

Adult classes range from $35.00 for a fermenting class and kit to $175.00 for a top bar hive class where you go home with your own beehive.  On some evenings a cob oven pizza will be served for a donation.

CLASS SIZE IS LIMITED TO 10 PROJECTS EACH SESSION SO RESERVE YOUR SPOT AND REGISTER SOON!
