Who doesn't enjoy a good Crafty afternoon with glue and fancy paper?

Join us for The Great Napkin Exchange, a playful decoupage workshop designed to spark creativity and authentic connection. Bring 8-10 decorative paper napkins and swap with fellow makers. Then dive into hands-on decoupage: learn two-three techniques to transform napkins into artful keepsakes. All materials (including tools, adhesives, and surfaces) are provided—just bring your imagination and a willingness to connect!

This is a pilot session—your feedback will help shape future Creative Connection events. Enjoy an exclusive early-adopter rate and be part of the journey!

This pilot will allow us to test creative ways to connect and share opportunities to meet other local creatives, share a few laughs and leave with some cool napkins to inspire your next round of creativity.

Welcome to The Gathering Table, where makers, dreamers, and storytellers come together to create, connect, and grow. Whether you’re a seasoned artist or simply curious about exploring your creativity, this is the place to spark authentic conversations, discover new skills, and build lasting friendships.
