Crafting
Busy hands, happy minds.
Learn new skills. Our program teaches a variety of activities that are useful, creative, and fun. With weekly projects in knitting, paper quilting, embroidery, and more, students build a host of new crafting skills.
Follow a plan. Crafting disciplines demand forethought and patience. Our activities help students learn to make a plan, keep focused on the task at hand, and problem-solve when obstacles arise.
Reach your goal. Our students see their projects through to completion. Tying-off the final knot of an intricate bracelet or unfolding a delicate origami crane always brings satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment.
All skill levels welcome!
Our courses are designed to accommodate a wide range of skill levels. We design our projects to be open-ended and accessible. When applicable, our instructors may offer more advanced techniques to groups of more experienced students.
