About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

Join us for a unique evening of crafting fun! In this workshop, we'll learn about the different types of hats and how they are made, and then create our very own fascinator entirely out of upcycled materials. You'll get inside knowledge on all the tips and tricks professional milliners use, and learn a whole new craft in the process!

Frequently asked questions

Are all materials included?

Yes! We will have all the necessary materials for you to complete the class, but if you would like to bring any personal items to include in your piece (faux flowers, ribbon or fabric scraps, paper ephemera) you are more than welcome to do so!

Where can I park?

We share a parking lot with a couple of other businesses, but you are free to park in any spot labeled "BUILDING MOMENTUM".

Will the shop be open during the workshop?

We hold the adult workshops after hours, so unfortunately items from the shop will not be available for purchase during the workshop. Please feel free to come back anytime during our normal hours to continue your crafting! We are open W-F 12pm-6pm and Sat-Sun 10am-4pm.

Who will be teaching the workshop?

We offer space for local artisans to showcase their skills and spread their knowledge! Your teacher is a member of your community with a passion for upcycling :)
