About our workshops

For students who are just getting started, it can be frustrating to pay for a workshop and then discover there's the additional expense of a long list of required tools and materials. In the case of workshops far enough away to require travel, those requirements can turn a great opportunity into an impossibility.

At The Makery, our goal is to offer you an "all inclusive" workshop experience whenever possible. In a very few cases, there may be some materials we'll ask you to bring, but we'll always make that clear up front.... and most of the time, you just need to come and enjoy yourself. Then, once you've had a chance to get to know a new technique and decide if you like it, we can help you with the most cost-effective way to take that experience home. No upsell, no sales pitch, just fellow makers who can either help you get the tools and materials you need or steer you to reputable resources you can access yourself.

In either case, our goal is the same: introduce you to the widest possible variety of artists, tools, techniques, and resources and then help you incorporate the things you love into your own creative journey. Questions? Concerns? Call or email us - we're here to help!
