Curiosity Studio

Scotch darning! Coming up on June 4th!

What is scotch darning? One of many methods of repair, scotch darning really shines when your knitwear has large holes or needs a little extra strength (heels! elbows!). Join Lauren for this bonus darning stitch that you will be happy to have in your toolbox! She thinks sock darning as an excellent summer craft: easy to bike to the park/beach with minimal supplies needed.

While Darning 101 isn’t a requirement, come ready to dive into darning full force. Community funds available.

See you there! Sign up above.

Don’t miss the last two Open Studio’s of the season before this program takes a summer break!

- This Thursday (5.21)! BIPOC Open Studio with Theme: Love. Naming and drawing attention to the ideas, rituals, people or things you love can ground us in moments when it may feel absent. We will sculpt mementos of appreciation that can be physically held close and use as visual reminders of the care and devotion we feel.
- Next Thursday (5.28)! Join Lauren for general Open Studio to explore the theme of stories. Drawing inspiration from Lucille Clifton’s poem by the same name, we will consider the layers - seen and unseen - that can influence our stories and art.

Registration for both of these events is free. Sign up today!

Welcome to the Curiosity Lab, where we transform everyday objects into new and exciting creations!

Ages 6-12 can join us on their day off of school, May 26th for this sliding scale offering. We will take inventory of all of the possible ways to create with a humble object you might find around your home: the cardboard tube.

Register above to secure your spot! A range of materials will be provided. Community funds available.

Gorgeous rugs by some gorgeous people!

Join us for Rug Braiding this Saturday May 16th from 9am-12pm to learn how. Community funds are available.
