COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS

On the 4th Saturday of each month, Hambidge offers a free creative workshop to our local community. The workshops cover a range of inspiring topics, from making ceramic luminaries, to journaling, to dyeing fabric with indigo. Visit our Events page to find listings for upcoming workshops and register. All attendees must register. Space is limited.
