Description
A social space for individuals who want to hang out and work on their projects. Bring a project to work on, something to share with others, or come to get input and inspiration from the collective.
Do you want to hang out but you don’t have a project? Are you not sure where to start? We have a variety of FREE fiber arts supplies so you can try out crochet, knitting, sewing, or bracelet-making.
Your project should be something you can work on with other people present and be worked on sharing table space. Come out, socialize, connect with resources, or take a short mental break in your busy day.
