Collective Craft Calendar

October 26, 2009

The Mama’s Collective Craft Night is a combination of a ladies’ night out with a (green) maker aspect. The idea is to offer women, mamas especially, the space and the time to come together in community and to create. Oftentimes mamas don’t have the luxury of time or space, in their homes or in their heads, to create something tangible and beautiful, a craft or a small piece of art. These nights offer just that. In addition to walking out with something crafted with your own two hands and imbibed with your own creative mind, mamas gain access to each other’s ideas and inspirations.

For these craft nights, everything needed to create is provided – the space, the materials, the tools and the scheduled time. Mamas just need bring themselves and a little wine or beer if so inclined. At the end, walk away, completed project and new ideas for life, living and the pursuit of happiness tucked safely in hand.

For the Fall season the Collective craft nights will focus on holiday crafts – advent calendars and greeting cards.  All craft nights will be from 7:15-10:00pm. $25.00 per night.*
