Before you book

The rest of it

Anything specific to one activity is answered on that workshop's own page.

What is the next workshop?

Candle Making, Sunday 1 November, 2:00 to 4:00 PM at Greenfoot Energy Centre in Bedford. It is $63.33 a seat and it is limited to 15 people. All materials are included.

What is kintsugi?

It is the Japanese practice of repairing broken pottery with a visible seam of gold. Nothing about the break is hidden. The repair becomes part of the piece, and the bowl is worth more for having been broken than it was before.

What creative activities are offered?

Kintsugi, mandala art, mosaic, stencil art, decoupage, candle making, soap and body butter. The list grows as new workshops are planned.

Do I need any experience?

No. Nothing here assumes you have done it before, and each activity is taught from the beginning.

What is included in the price?

Every material and tool you need for the workshop. You bring nothing and you leave with what you made.

Can I cancel?

Yes. Cancel at least 48 hours before the workshop and you are refunded in full. Inside 48 hours the seat cannot be refunded, because the materials for it have already been bought.

Where are workshops hosted?

Around the Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM). The venue is confirmed for each workshop and it is named on the reservation before you pay.

Do you come to Dartmouth, Sackville or Fall River?

Yes. Private workshops travel across the Halifax region: Halifax, Bedford, Dartmouth, Cole Harbour, Lower Sackville, Hammonds Plains and Fall River are all ordinary. Travel, if there is any, is quoted with your price and shown as its own line.

What kind of private events can you host?

Birthdays, baby and bridal showers, team building, and community groups. Pick one activity for everyone, such as candle making, mosaic or kintsugi, and every material and tool is brought and set out before your guests sit down.

Can I book a private event?

Yes. A private workshop is hosted for your group only. You choose the activity, and the room is set up for the number coming. Send your details through the form on this page and you get options back.
