Crafting Together. Inspired by Nature.
Crafting Together offers a welcoming space for people of all ages to explore nature-inspired art, learn traditional craft skills, and nurture their creative spirit.
Born from the joy and curiosity we’ve seen in our Together in the Park classes, this program invites adults, teens, and families to gather in community—making art that’s grounded in nature and inspired by the seasons. No experience needed.
This fall and winter, we’re partnering with Verona Maker Space to bring our programs indoors and expand our offerings to include both adult workshops and caregiver & child art classes.
Join us to unwind, learn something new, and connect with others through the creative magic of nature.
