About this Event
May Open Studio features one of our favorite themes yet — celebrating family. No matter how you define family or what yours looks like, we’ll offer projects to help you celebrate the people you love. Found family, extended family, friends who are family. Every kind of family is welcome here!
If you’ve never come to our Open Studio events, here’s a quick rundown: We set up project stations that you can explore at your own pace. Minimal instruction, maximum creativity. We try to plan projects that are open-ended so you can craft your way, but we provide plenty of samples and inspiration. While we encourage families to craft together, these workshops are NOT just for kids. If you need a burst of creative joy in your week, you’ve found it. And in case you’re wondering, we have plenty of crafters who come at 10:01 and leave at 12:59 — we’re happy for you to craft as long as you like.
This month’s themed projects include:
— A custom frame to display a photo of your favorite people.
— A keepsake wall hanging that celebrates your loved ones.
— The cutest gift for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day or any day.
— A card-making station so you can prep for all the upcoming holidays.
— And more!
After you create with us, be sure to check out the Locally Crafted outdoor Makers’ Market at Rio. It runs from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on May 2 and 3.
Our monthly plea: If possible, please buy your tickets ahead of time. It’s a bit cheaper, but mostly, it helps us to plan our materials so we don’t leave any crafters without supplies (or prep way too much!). We know it’s not always possible to plan ahead, but if you can, it helps us make Open Studio the best experience for everyone!
Tickets are $15 in advance or $18 at the door. Crafters under 4 are free, but must be accompanied by a paying adult.
All children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.
