Spark creativity and quality time through traditional arts & crafts—done together as a family!

Family Crafternoons brings a world of color, materials, and crafting fun to little hands and their grown-up partners. Designed by a child development expert and family life educator, each class offers a nurturing, playful space to connect and create, no matter your artistic experience. It’s cozy, collaborative, and bursting with crafty imagination!

  • Full freedom to create—no checklist, no wrong way to craft!
